NEWTON, MASS. – The Providence College field hockey team fell to Boston University, 2-1, on Friday, Aug. 26 at the Boston College Field Hockey Complex in Newton, Mass. The game was interrupted by severe weather in the area, and the teams finished the final 10:27 of regulation after a three-hour and 22-minute delay.
1ST QUARTER:
• Cami Crook (Somerset, Mass.) gave the Friars a 1-0 lead at the 12:44 mark. She collected a rebound off the goalkeeper's pads following an initial shot by Eleonore de Keyser (Brussels, Belgium) on a penalty corner and fired a low shot just inside the right post, unassisted.
• Providence led in shots (4-1) and shots on goal (3-1). Both teams recorded one penalty corner in the opening 15 minutes.
• Goalkeeper Asia Porter (Somerset, Mass.) saved the Terrier's lone shot of the quarter for her first save of the season.
2ND QUARTER:
• Providence carried its 1-0 lead into halftime as both teams were scoreless in the second quarter.
• The Terriers held a 2-1 advantage in shots during the frame, with BU putting both attempts on target.
• Porter went into halftime with three saves.
• At the break, Providence held a 5-4 lead in shots
3RD QUARTER:
• Boston University tied the game just 1:44 into the third quarter as Tess Csejka redirected an awkwardly bouncing ball into the cage at the left post (1-1). Mikayla Crowley was credited with the assist.
• Payton Anderson, the Terrier's leading scorer from a season ago, put BU ahead 2-1 at 41:36. She converted on a direct shot during a penalty corner assisted by Ellie McIntyre and Thalia Steenssens.
• Niamh Gowing (Dublin, Ireland) created a dangerous opportunity for the Friars in the offensive circle with 18 seconds left. Her backhanded shot was saved by the BU goalkeeper and yielded a Providence corner.
• Providence was unable to convert on the set-piece as De Keyser's shot was wide of the cage.
• Heading into the fourth quarter, the Friars held a 7-5 edge in shot attempts. Penalty corners were tied up, 2-2.
4TH QUARTER:
• The two teams were forced to clear the field with 10:27 remaining in the game due to lightning. A strong storm moved through the area.
• After a delay of three hours and 22 minutes, play resumed and the Friars gained a player advantage due to a green card assessed to Rachel Borzymowski as play was halted.
• With 2:02 remaining in regulation, the Friars pulled Porter from goal in favor of the extra attacker.
• Despite the advantage, Providence was unable to score the equalizer.
• Neither team recorded a shot in the fourth quarter.
NOTES / HIGHLIGHTS:
• Crook's goal in the first quarter marked the first tally of her collegiate career.
• Porter finished the game with three saves, while Caroline Kelly and Kate Thomason combined for three saves in the victory.
• De Keyser, a junior defender, made her collegiate debut for Providence and paced the Friars with two shots.
• The Friars held the advantage in shots (7-5), while BU recorded a 5-4 edge in shots on goal. Both teams completed regulation with two penalty corners, each scoring one goal on a set piece.
• Providence is scheduled to play its first six games on the road before hosting BIG EAST foe Villanova in its 2022 home opener at Lennon Family Field on Sept. 16.
• Seven of the Friars' 17 regular-season opponents are currently ranked in the NFHCA Division I National Coaches' Poll.
