Box Score

GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Jocelyn Novak scored three goals in the game's final 27 minutes to lead fourth-ranked and undefeated Lebanon Valley College to a 7-1 non-conference victory over the Gettysburg College field hockey team Friday afternoon at Shirk Field at Musselman Stadium.

The two teams played only the final 27 minutes of the game on Friday, completing the contest that was suspended due to lightning and darkness on Sept. 22.

Allison Bicher added two goals and an assist for Lebanon Valley (11-0) while Caitlin Vasey added one goal and one assist. Christine Poletti made six saves for LVC.

Novak, a junior, also tied her school record for career goals (88), a mark that has stood since 1972.

Junior Sarah Cole scored her team-leading sixth goal of the season for Gettysburg (4-6) while sophomore Megan Feeg made 11 saves.

It was a just a 2-0 game when it was originally suspended, with the Flying Dutchmen holding a slim 12-11 advantage in shots. But LVC closed the game by outshooting the Bullets 15-4.

Cole cut the deficit to 4-1 with 12:18 left, one-timing a straightaway shot on a pass from sophomore Ally Duggan, who picked up her first collegiate point with the assist.

Lebanon Valley put the game away with three goals inside the final 10:21, including two in the last 6:14.

Gettysburg returns home on Saturday, hosting Bryn Mawr College in a Centennial Conference tilt starting at 4:30 p.m.
