Game Recap: Field Hockey |

Second Quarter Explosion Lifts Field Hockey

After scoring her first career goal to win Saturday's game in overtime, sophomore Maleah Hess scored the first two goals in  Muhlenberg field hockey's 4-0 win over King's
 
The second of her two goals sparked a three-goal second quarter for the Mules. Midway through the frame Hess scored on a penalty corner that was inserted to junior Marlee Siegel who then fed Hess on the left elbow of the circle. Just over a minute later, freshman Alexandra Gann set up junior Rachel Richards in front of the cage with a pass from outside the circle on the left side.
 
Tietz (pictured above) concluded the scoring when she cleaned up a scrum in front of the goalmouth late in the frame for her first goal of the season.
 
Muhlenberg racked up eight penalty corners over the course of the first half and converted all three second-quarter shots.
 
The Mules' 4-0 start is the program's first since 2016. Consequently, that was also the last time the team posted four consecutive shutouts, defeating Franklin & Marshall, Swarthmore, Gettysburg and Moravian by a combined 16-0. The Moravian game marked the last time the team scored four goals in a half; the 9-0 win came on the heels of four goals in the first half and five in the second.
