Mountain Hawks pull out big 1-0 win at Towson
9/8/2013 6:29:00 PM | Field Hockey
TOWSON, Md. - Freshman Marissa Glatt scored the only goal of the game and  classmate Julia Ward made six saves in the cage as the Mountain Hawks downed Towson, 1-0 on Sunday afternoon. Glatt scored just 7:01 into the game while the defense stood tall the rest of the way.
Â
"It was a back and forth game and I am very proud of the entire team for competing and working for the entire 70 minutes to get the win," said Lehigh head coach Stacey Blue. "Julia played like a senior today."
Â
Glatt gave Lehigh a lead it wouldn't relinquish early in the first half, taking a feed from sophomore Zoey Pacheco and beating Towson goalkeeper Brittany Varacallo from in close to make it 1-0. It marked Glatt's second goal in as many games.
Â
The Mountain Hawks held an 8-4 shot advantage in the first half, but couldn't find the back of the cage for a second time.
Â
Towson began to turn up the pressure in the second half, holding a 10-5 shot advantage but Ward came up big. Five of her six saves came in the second while senior Marie Mignogna added a defensive stop as well to clinch the Mountain Hawks' first win of the season. In the process, Lehigh defeated Towson for a second straight season.
Â
Final shots were 14-13 in favor of the Tigers while Towson had 12 penalty corners to seven for the Mountain Hawks. Ward finished with six saves across Varacallo who made four.
Â
Lehigh looks to carry the momentum into its next game as the Mountain Hawks host Georgetown on Friday at 6 p.m.
