GLENSIDE, Pa. – The Arcadia University field hockey team hosted Eastern in non-conference action Monday night, falling to the Eagles 1-0 in overtime.
 
FOR THE RECORD: The Knights fell to 4-3 on the year, while Eastern improved to 2-5.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED: After a first half that saw a combined six shots on goal, Arcadia came out in the second half and put three straight on cage. The Knights were awarded a penalty corner six minutes into the second frame, which resulted in a pair of shots on the doorstep in quick succession from freshman Lauren Dougherty. Half a minute later, senior Gabby Sedares tested the Eastern keeper, before firing a shot high a minute later off another penalty corner. The Scarlet and Grey defense sent the game to overtime as it stopped a penalty corner attempt from the Eagles that played out after the horn.
 
Junior Kayla Brenna came up with a huge defensive save for the Knights just over five minutes into the extra session, before the visitors found the back of the net in the 81^st minute after finding the loose ball in front of the cage.
 
IN GOAL: Freshman Maya Stern (4-3) made 10 saves for Arcadia, while Brennan and senior Liz Stierle each registered a defensive save. Nicole Berger (2-5) made four saves for Eastern.
