Game Stats -- October 20, 2001
Washington, D.C. -- American field hockey played solidly to defeat Ursinus, 4-1, today at Georgetown University. The Eagles have now won four straight Patriot League games and remain tied for second place in the conference. Senior co-captain Rita Delgadillo (Chula Vista, Calif./Hilltop) scored twice for American, earning her second and third goals on the season.
Junior Magdalena Aguilar (Buenos Aires, Argentina/St. Catherine's Moorlands) started off the scoring at 9:13 when she found the back of the net on a penalty corner. Ursinus soon answered at 27:27 as sophomore midfielder Amy Midgley sent a rebounded shot back into the goal.
Delgadillo responded with the game winner at 27:44 on an unassisted shot in front of the goal to make the game 2-1 in favor of American. She notched her second goal on the day less than five minutes later after Aguilar sent her a pass in the circle.
Sophomore forward Melissa Snyder (Gaithersburg, Md./Quince Orchard) added an insurance goal for the Eagles at 62:59, putting the game out of reach at 4-1.
