September 10, 2023 | Field Hockey
Bohn Records Game-Winner
LOCK HAVEN, Pa. - Rachel Bohn scored two goals including the game-winner in the sudden death shootout against Lock Haven Sunday morning at the Charlotte E. Smith Field.
The Cardinals (1-4) went toe-to-toe with the Eagles (2-3) from start to finish today as Ball State had its first sudden death contest since the 2019 season.
Lock Haven got on board first with just 36 seconds shaved off the clock after scoring off a penalty stroke to take the early 1-0 lead over Ball State. After that, the Cardinals were able to regroup and play some stellar defense, holding Lock Haven scoreless the remainder of regulation.
At the 8:55 mark of the second period, Bohn found the back of the cage off the assist from Kerrianne McClay, knotting the ball game 1-1 right before intermission.
Both teams remained competitive throughout the 60-minute duration of today's game. Ball State had nine penalty corner attempts while Lock Haven had four. Neither team would end up scoring thus sending the contest into overtime.
After two OT's both squads were held scoreless sending the game into a sudden death shootout. Bohn's stroke off Lock Haven goalie Kelsey Felix would propel the Cardinals to victory.
Offensively, Ball State had a season best 18 shots along with 10 shots on goal. McClay led the Cardinals with nine shots and six shots on goal while defensively goalie Hannah Johnston had three saves.
The Ball State field hockey team will open Mid-American Conference action Friday at Ohio which will begin at 3 p.m. ET in Athens. After that, the Cardinals return to the Briner Sports Complex for their home opener against Saint Louis Sunday at 1 pm ET.
