🔼 Clipping Their Wings. App State Field Hockey returned to its winning ways on Friday with a stifling defensive effort in a 2-0 home win over Ball State.
Senior goalkeeper Dakota Anderson recorded her fourth shutout and fourth double-digit save performance of the season, stopping all 13 shots on goal she faced to keep the Cardinals off the scoreboard.
Freshman and leading scorer Chloe Hook provided the game-winner off a third-quarter penalty corner, tipping a pass from Sophia Baxter past the goalkeeper. Brynn Shaffer doubled the advantage later in the period on another penalty corner set piece.
🔼 Three Of A Kind. For a third straight meet, junior Noah Martinson paced the App State Men’s Cross Country team with a third top-10 finish of the fall season to pace the Mountaineers to a third-place team finish at the Fire Tower Project Meet on Friday evening.
Martinson’s time of 24:21.5 earned a ninth-place finish, while freshman Jackson Tuck collected his first top-10 finish of his collegiate career at 24:24.8, right behind Martinson.
On the women’s side, all five Mountaineers finished in the top-40 with a 23-second spread to finish seventh in a 14-team field.
