Eight Different Orange Find the Net

LEWISBURG, Pa. – Eight different players found the back of the net as No. 15 Syracuse University field hockey closed out one of the longest road swings in program history with a 10-0 win at Bucknell on Sunday afternoon.

Syracuse (4-1) wrapped a five-game, season-opening trip that carried the Orange through Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and central Pennsylvania before the team finally heads home this week. Hattie Madden paced the offense with a hat trick and an assist, while Jovie Weaver, Ellis Cannon, Taylor Bigbie, Catalina Pravda, Aubrey Turner, Sammie Goin and Ally Snyder each added a goal.

Cannon and Pravda scored the first goals of their careers, Goin converted a penalty stroke, and Snyder found the net for the first time this season. Turner, Goin and Madden handled the assists. Tane King went the distance in goal, turning aside the only shot she faced to preserve the shutout, the first of her career.

Bucknell (4-1) entered unbeaten after its best start since 1984 but was held off the board. Sarah Althouse made eight saves across 49:06 before Abby Zanelli stopped two more in 10:54 of relief. Julia Corropolese added a defensive save for the Bison.

How it Happened

The Orange controlled play from the opening push, outshooting Bucknell 7-0 in the first quarter before Madden broke through unassisted at 11:51 for her third goal of the season.
The lead tripled inside the first two and a half minutes of the second quarter. Madden struck again at 16:15, and Weaver followed at 17:15 on a feed from Turner.
Cannon capped the quarter at 29:15, finishing a Goin assist for her first career goal and a 4-0 cushion at the break.
Bucknell's best stretch came midway through the second, when a Bella Notaro corner insert set up back-to-back attempts from Corropolese and Ameerah Kothari that were both blocked.
Syracuse broke the game open in the third. Back-to-back Turner corners led to a Bigbie goal at 32:34, moments after Althouse had denied her initial attempt.
Pravda notched her first career goal at 36:22, and Turner made it 7-0 at 38:46 off a Madden assist.
Goin converted a penalty stroke at 40:43 for an 8-0 lead through three quarters.
Madden completed her hat trick at 49:06 to force a goalkeeping change, and Snyder answered 26 seconds later at 49:32 for the game's final goal.
King's lone save came at 59:03 on a Notaro attempt, closing out the shutout in the final minute.
