SWARTHMORE, Pa. – Sophomore Hannah Lichtenstein scored twice to propel the Swarthmore College women's soccer team to a 3-1 victory over McDaniel on Saturday, Oct. 18 at Clothier Field.
 
All of the scoring came in the first half, beginning with two consecutive Lichtenstein strikes within a span of 2:25. The sophomore finished passes from classmateMiranda Saldivar and senior Emma Sindelar in the 27th and 30th minutes, respectively, to put Swarthmore up by a 2-0 score.
 
McDaniel (8-3-3, CC 2-2-2) sliced the deficit in half when Kristen Upton headed in a corner kick taken by Erica Diffendal in the 34th minute, but the Garnet had an answer before halftime and held on the rest of the way. Sophomore Caroline Khanna headed in a cross from Sindelar before colliding with McDaniel goalkeeper Haley Jacobs to close out the scoring in the waning minutes of the first half.
                                                                
Junior Reba Magier of Swarthmore made four saves to pick up the victory, while McDaniel's Jacobs was tagged with the loss after allowing three goals and only turning away one shot in the first half. Sarah McDonald relieved Jacobs and made one stop in the second half.
 
Swarthmore (9-4, CC 4-3) will host Muhlenberg for a pivotal Centennial Conference match on Wednesday, Oct. 22 at 7 p.m.
