FREDERICKSBURG, Va. - After starting the season with a pair of wins, the Bridgewater Eagles field hockey team fell on the road at perennial power Mary Washington by a 5-0 tally.

Mary Washington used a stifling defense to hold the Eagles squad to just one shot on the day, while UMW tallied 20 shots. Junior Brianna Jacques tallied BC's lone shot with 25 minutes remaining in the contest.

UMW had a pair of players with two goals, while the squad had balanced scoring with three goals in the first half and two in the second.

In the cage for BC, both Taylor Waddell and Elizabeth Sullivan saw action each playing a half. Waddell and Sullivan each recorded five saves with Waddell picking up the loss.

"This was a hard and tough game for us," said head coach Allyson Kenyon. "We had some good ideas but our execution was a little off. On the bright side, we learned some things today and we will look to apply them this weekend, starting with St. Vincent."

BC hosts the Mapp Invitational on Saturday and Sunday at Mapp Field. BC opens play on Saturday against St. Vincent at 1:00 p.m. The Eagles will then play on Sunday in the consolation or championship final, pending Saturday's outcome.
