The No. 25-ranked William & Mary field hockey team picked up its first win of the season on Sunday, shutting out Long Island 2-0.  With the win, the Tribe improves to 1-1 on the year, while the Sharks fell to 0-3 overall.

How It Happened
- W&M took control of the pace of play early, taking four shots in the first five minutes, and held a 7-1 shot advantage in the first quarter overall.  That included a penalty corner as time expired, but the shot was blocked and the teams cleared the field with the score 0-0.
- The second quarter developed much the same way, with the Tribe again holding a commanding 7-1 shot advantage, and adding two more penalty corners.  The Sharks earned their first penalty corner as well, but sophomore goalkeeper Kimi Jones (Virginia Beach, Va.) swallowed up the ensuing shot attempt to preserve the 0-0 tie.
- W&M finally broke through late in the 27th minute.  Freshman Audrey Domovich (Hummelstown, Pa.) got the ball just inside the midfield, and swept it down a seam in the middle of the defense to find junior Ashley Drum (Virginia Beach, Va.).  Drum one-timed a pass down to senior Woodard Hooper (Williamsburg, Va.) right in front of goal, and she was able to send the shot past the goalkeeper and in for the 1-0 lead.
- After trading penalty corners in the early part of the third period, W&M scored again in the 37th minute for the 2-0 lead.  On the attack with the ball, freshman Lily Saunders (Mount Joy, Pa.) was impeded driving for the goal, and the Tribe was awarded a penalty stroke.  Senior captain Christie van de Kamp (Midlothian, Va.) stepped to the spot for the second time in her career, and converted once again for the score.
- That's how the score remained through the end of regulation, despite an active fourth quarter for both teams.  W&M took six shots in the quarter, and Long Island took three, including two out of a penalty corner that senior Morgan Connor (Bedford, N.Y.) turned away in the 55th minute.
