Field Hockey Blanks Meredith to Start Season with a Win

RALEIGH, N.C. – The Bridgewater College field hockey team kicked off the 2023 season with a dominating 5-0 win on the road at Meredith on Friday night.
 
THE BASICS
Final Score: Bridgewater 5, Meredith 0
Records: Bridgewater 1-0, Meredith 0-1
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Eagles dominated the game nearly from opening whistle to the final horn. BC opened the scoring in the eighth minute of the game off the stick of Kylie Amberger to put the Crimson & Gold in front, 1-0. Emily Tyler netted another one just before the end of the quarter to give the Eagles a 2-0 edge after 15 minutes. BC peppered the Meredith cage with nine shots – all on target – and forcing seven early saves from the home side.
  • Amberger added to her night's offensive production as the second-year played registered her second goal of the game off a pass from Amora Marchand, 3-0. Less than two minutes later, Amberger completed a hat trick as she gave the Eagles a 4-0 lead going into halftime.
  • Despite firing off 13 shots in the third quarter, Bridgewater was held scoreless in the frame, but a score from Tyler off a pass from Lexi Francis just 45 seconds into the fourth quarter gave the Eagles all the insurance they needed on the way to a 5-0 victory to start off the 2023 campaign.
MATCH FACTS
  • Amberger led the offense with a hat trick, while Tyler was close behind with a pair of scores.
  • Daphne Daymude also rocketed eight shots on the evening and first year Rylie Flick tossed in six attempts of her own.
  • Three Eagles saw time in the cage as Madalyn Miller played 30 minutes and made one save, while Ashley Nau and Harley Hoffman split the last 30 minutes with Hoffman stopping the only shot she faced.
  • For the Avenging Angels, Shae-Lynn Henderson was forced to make 23 saves in just over 52 minutes and Molly Click entered to stop all seven shots she faced in the loss.
  • Bridgewater outshot the home side 43-3 with 36 of those attempts going on target.
  • The Avenging Angels made 31 saves compared to just the pair of saves that were needed of BC.
