Field Hockey Wins Second Straight; 1-0 over Assumption

Smithfield, R.I. -  The Bryant University Field Hockey team continued its winning streak, defeating Assumption College 1-0 Saturday afternoon at the Bryant Turf Complex.

Shana Libman (Attleboro, Mass.) scored the game's only goal, in the second minute, taking a Laynie Sadler (Rehoboth, Mass.) feed and shooting it over Greyhounds goaltender Brandi Guertin, who had fallen to the ground, trying to make the save.

The goal was Libman's fourth of the season.

After getting Thursday's match off, Kundayi Mawema (Hare, Zimbabwe) returned to the net and stopped ten shots, including four in consecutive succession in the second half.

Bryant also successfully defended against 11 Assumption corners.

With the victory, the Bulldogs are 5-5 overall and 5-3 in the Northeast-10. They will look to make it three in a row when they host St. Anselm's Monday night (7 p.m.).
