The William and Mary field hockey team fell in its second match of the weekend, losing at No. 17 Michigan, 2-0. The Tribe moves to 1-3 on the year, while the Wolverines earn their first win at 1-2 overall.
Box ScoreThe Tribe defense did very well to keep the score close, facing 12 shots and 11 penalty corners on the afternoon. Michigan scored both their goals off of corners in the first 15 minutes, but W&M steeled after that and kept them off the board again. Junior
Meredith Savage (Virginia Beach, Va.) made four saves in goal, raising her season total to 23. On the other end of the field, freshman
Emma MacLeod (Richmond, Va.) had the Tribe's shot in the first half, and in the second,
Peyton Smith (Richmond, Va.) had her shot off a corner saved by the Michigan goalkeeper.
William and Mary now returns home for the next two weeks, with a pair of matches each of the next two weekends. The homestand begins next Friday, Sept. 12, hosting Rutgers at 7 p.m.
