Score: Becker 4 – Albertus Magnus 1 (Exhibition Match)

GAME SUMMARY

Four unanswered Hawks goals would provide the offense for Becker, as they dug out of an early 1-0 deficit.

In the 33^rd minute, Falcons sophomore Kelly Musante (Wallingford, Conn.) broke the scoreless tie to give Albertus a 1-0 lead. Musante fired a shot from long distance that Hawks sophomore goalie Olivia Sherwood (Southington, Conn.) was unable to keep out of the net.

But the Hawks would tie the game 1-1 soon after with sophomore Shannon O'Toole (Hamilton, Mass.) scoring for Becker in the 35^th minute. O'Toole's goal also came from distance as her shot found the top corner, out of the reach of the Falcon keeper.

Two minutes later, in the 37^th minute, senior Shannon Kelley (Bellingham, Mass.) scored to give the Hawks a 2-1 lead. Kelley's left-footed finish found the back of the net and proved to be the eventual game-winning goal.

Just before halftime, senior Alyson Eldridge (Chesterfield, N.H.) got on the board from close range, scoring past an oncoming Falcons goalie and giving the Hawks a 3-1 edge.

Things were quiet until the 64^th minute where a penalty kick goal from junior Kristen Beidleman (Holliston, Mass.) finished off a stretch of four goals in 29 minutes, as the Hawks went on to win 4-1.
