2009 NCAA DIVISION III FIELD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEWBy: Bob Birge (NCAA.com Correspondent)Saturday’s Division III national semifinal between top-ranked Messiah and No. 3 Ursinus is a rematch of the 2006 championship game.

Three years ago, Ursinus overcame a No. 8 seed – the lowest in the tournament – to capture its first – and only – field hockey crown with a 3-2 victory over Messiah.

Current Messiah goaltender Ashley Mowery started that game as a freshman and recorded seven saves.

Ursinus is making its fourth appearance in the final four under 11th-year coach Laura Moliken, who won three national titles as a player at Division I Old Dominion from 1989-92.

THEY’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE – Three of last year’s final four participants – Messiah, Ursinus and Tufts – made it back to the national semifinals.

Bowdoin, last season’s other final four team, was replaced by Salisbury. The Sea Gulls have four national titles – most among this year’s final four clubs – but that is still five shy of the Division III record of nine held by the College of New Jersey.

Bowdoin, the defending two-time national champions, began the year ranked No. 1 in Division III, but the Polar Bears struggled through an up-and-down 10-6 season and did not even qualify for the NCAA tournament.

Their season ended in stunning fashion, as they surrendered the winning goal with just eight seconds remaining in a 2-1 loss to Trinity in the semifinals of the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) tournament.

ROAD TO SOUTH HADLEY – Messiah faced the toughest test to get to the final four, needing overtime to defeat Lebanon Valley, 3-2, in the quarterfinals last Sunday.

Salisbury posted a 3-2 regulation win over SUNY Cortland; Ursinus routed Trinity,

5-1, and Tufts handled Skidmore, 4-1.

Junior Julie Barton scored the game-winner 5 minutes, 31 seconds into overtime for Messiah, which posted its third victory of the season over Lebanon Valley College.

A week earlier, the Falcons defeated Lebanon, 2-1, in the Commonwealth Confer-ence championship game to give coach Jan Trapp her 500th career victory.

STINGY DEFENSE – Tufts entered the NCAA tournament with the best defense in Division III, allowing only 0.53 goals per game. The Jumbos yielded one goal in each of their two tournament wins.

Sophomore goalkeeper Marianna Zak came into postseason play leading the NCAA with a 0.52 goals-against average.

Although just a junior, Tamara Brown already has established a Tufts’ record for career points with 127. Brown also is threatening to break the school’s single-season mark of 61 points that she set last year. She has 55 points on 21 goals and 13 assists.

THEY’RE All-STARS – Four players who will be participating in the semifinals were named to the National Field Hockey Coaches Association Division III Senior All-Star Game.

They foursome includes Beverly Beladino and Lauren Correll of Salisbury, along with Mowery and Katie Hunt of Ursinus.

Correll scored her 78th career goal last week against SUNY Cortland, leaving her two away from the school record of 80, set by Jill Cressor from 1999-2002.

The NFHCA All-Star contest will be played Sunday at Mount Holyoke at 9:30 a.m.

There is only one thing missing on the resume of legendary Messiah field hockey coach Jan Trapp - a national championship.

Trapp and the undefeated Falcons get another chance to capture the school’s first field hockey title this weekend when they make their 13th appearance in the Division III final four, which takes place at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Mass.

There were no surprises in regional play last weekend, as the top four ranked teams advanced to the national semifinals by winning second- and third-round contests at home.

No. 1 Messiah (21-0) meets No. 3 Ursinus (20-2) in Saturday’s first semifinal at 11 a.m., followed by a contest between No. 2 Salisbury (18-1) and No. 4 Tufts (18-1), last year’s national runner-up, at 2 p.m.

The two semifinal survivors play for the title Sunday at 1 p.m.

Completing her 37th season at the helm of the Messiah program, Trapp has coached in more games (701) than any field hockey coach in NCAA history, regardless of the division.

On November 7, Trapp won her 500th game, becoming only the fourth NCAA coach in the sport (all divisions) to achieve that milestone. She has added two more victories in the NCAA tournament to improve her career mark to 502-171-28.

Yet the 1967 graduate of West Chester University has never won the final game of the season despite coming close so many times. The Falcons have fallen in the finals six times, most recently, losing in the championship to Ursinus in 2006.

Unlike some coaches, Trapp is not obsessed with winning a title. Of course, that doesn’t mean the Falcons won’t be playing to win this weekend.

“We’d love to come home national champions, there’s absolutely no question,” Trapp said. “I know the girls have been working for that. If we don’t win it, we’ll be upset like anybody else.”

Coming off its first undefeated regular season since 1984, Messiah figures to be the favorite this weekend. However, Ursinus coach Laura Moliken believes the pressure is squarely on the Falcons.

`I think 21-0 is an absolutely awful burden to carry into a championship,” said Moliken, who guided Ursinus to its only crown three years ago. “I think coaches will often

tell you that (being undefeated) is not always an advantage.”

Ursinus’ only loss was a 4-3 defeat to Messiah in the second game of the season on Sept. 5. Ursinus scored first, but the Falcons erupted for three goals in a span of less than two minutes late in the first half to take control.

Messiah boasts a pair of potent scorers in junior forward Kourtney Ehly (26 goals, 11 assists, 63 points) and senior forward Katie Love (24-11-59), who have combined for 122 points this season.

But the Falcons’ true leader is junior midfielder Julie Barton, the Commonwealth Conference Player of the Year. While Barton only has eight goals and 12 assists, she gets the offense going and scored the overtime game winner in last Sunday’s 3-2 quarterfinal victory over Lebanon Valley College.

Ursinis is led by the trio of junior midfielders Megan Yoder (26-19-71), sophomore forward Alyssa Thren (32-6-70) and senior forward Jessica Zatwarnicki (19-15-53).

Thren, who is averaging a Division III-best 1.5 goals per contest, has established a Centennial Conference record for goals in a season. She broke the previous mark of 31 set last year by another Ursinus standout, Jenny Moore.

“She’s a tremendous finisher around goal,” Moliken said of Thren. “She has such speed. This year one of her challenges has been to learn how to play great defense and she has gotten much better at that.”

Ursinus loves to attack, out-shooting its opponents by a combined 726-207, which goes a long way toward explaining why the Bears average 6.95 goals per game, the highest total in Division III.

“They have great athletes, great scoring potential,” Trapp said. “Our girls know they have to step it up and bring their best game. It’s two similar teams playing each other, similar in playing styles.”

Of all the teams in action this weekend, Salisbury leads the way with four national championships (1986, 2003, 2004 and 2005). The Sea Gulls’ only loss in the regular season was a 3-2 overtime defeat to Messiah.

Tufts, which did not play any of the final four participants in the regular season, is looking to return to the championship game after suffering a heartbreaking 3-2 overtime setback to Bowdoin in the finals last season.

From Frances Perkins to Susan Lori Parks, Mount Holyoke College has produced some impressive women. Barbara Cassani ’82 is no exception. As a leading businesswomen and active leader for the 2012 Summer Olympics, Cassani’s education and drive have taken her to the top.

She graduated magna cum laude in 1982 with a major in international relations. Her Mount Holyoke life didn’t end there, as she later became a trustee for the college. She also continued her post-Mount Holyoke education at the Woodrow Wilson School for Public and International Affairs at Princeton

University, where she completed a master’s degree in public affairs. Her school-ing in international relations took her to Washington, D.C. to work at Coopers & Lybrand, one of the world’s largest privately owned organizations. After working in their international division, Cassani switched careers and took a position with international flight mega-company British Airways. It was at British Airways that Cassani’s management and eye for business took flight.

While at British Airways, other airlines were establishing flights that attempted to facilitate more affordable travel. This competition inspired Cassani’s development of British Airways own low-cost airline. Cassani’s leadership and innovative ideas earned her the task of creating such an airline. With this job, Cassani soared and took a small European airline – previously bought by British Airways – and trans-formed it into Go Fly, a budget flight part of British Airways. Her part in creating Go Fly led her to become a leading businesswoman. In 2002, Cassani won the

Veuve Clicquot Businesswoman of the Year Award, which has been described as one of the UK’s most prestigious Business awards. She has also appeared in Wall Street Journal Europe’s list of the twenty-five most successful businesswomen.

Go Fly went on to have a successful subsidiary life and eventually merged with EasyJet. During this merger, Cassani’s interests took a new direction and flew into sports. In 2003, she was chosen to head London’s bid for the 2012 Summer Olympics. Although unknown in the Olympic arena, her experience in both busi-ness and management proved just the ticket for the Olympic organizing committee, as she led the committee through the Olympic bidding process. Under Cassani’s leadership, a blueprint for the Olympics was created, including London’s plans for the location and infrastructure of the facilities. This plan took London to the top five cities under consideration. Cassani transferred her chair role to Lord Coe, Olympic gold medalist in the 1500 m run, who eventually headed London to its successful selection as the host site for the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Cassani’s success in the business field only continues, most recently with Jury’s Inn Hotels. Her ambition and intelligence have moved her up the work ladder as she continues to prove her many talents and professionalism. She will return to Mount Holyoke this weekend, speaking about leadership and taking an active role in the 2009 Division III National Field Hockey Championship. Her participation in spearheading an airline, various chairing positions, and the 2012 Summer Olympics makes Cassani a perfect role model for young women – athletes and non-athletes alike – across the country.

MOUNT HOLYOKE NEWS: BARBARA CASSANI FEATUREBy: Terry Orr (Mount Holyoke Senior Soccer Team Member)

As the NCAA Division III Field Hockey Tournament draws near, some esteemed field hockey alumnae prove that their passion for the game is as strong as their passion for their alma mater. Alison Hersey Risch is one such alum. Alison has seen the game of field hockey and lacrosse evolve into the sport we have today, both Varsity sports at Mount Holyoke.

Daughter of a class of ‘27 alum, Mount Holyoke was an automatic choice for Alison’s college career. Alison recalls, “It was a good fit even though it took an extra year of academics to get the big acceptance letter.”

During that post-graduate year at the Northampton School for Girls, Alison played one year with Hampshire Association Field Hockey. In that short year, Alison made the Northeast Team and National Tournament. For the next five years, Alison con-tinued to play with Hampshire Field Hockey as it brought her exposure to a high level of coaching and game play. When she entered MHC in 1955, field hockey was only offered as a club sport and Smith was the only intramural competition.

A year later, Alison represented the United States Field Hockey Association touring team to South Africa and Rhodesia. There, Alison traveled with both the Springbok and Scottish teams, playing each other and other provincial teams. Alison remem-bers that her time with the South African teams was before they were banned from international play and held the reputation of being “the finest Field Hockey players in the world.” This would be the year Alison would learn “what fitness meant.” In 1959, Alison took a leave of absence from her second semester of her senior year

to once again represent the USFHA again on the Touring Team to the International Conference in Amsterdam.

After graduating, Alison found herself at Tufts earning a M.Ed in preschool education and became fascinated with Lacrosse, a sport that she wasn’t competitively exposed to at Mount Holy-oke. She began playing with the Boston Women’s Lacrosse Association and was “hooked by the fastest game on two feet.” She would go on to travel to Great Britain and Ireland as captain of the United States Womens’ Lacrosse Association team. However her passion for field hockey never faded.

In 1962 she was invited to play England in Wembley Stadium and tour the British Isles. She recalls the event, “we played before 52,000 rabid school girls who could match the noise of any Red Sox/Yankees game.” They tied England that year for the first time in history. The next year, The USFHA hosted the International Conference at Goucher College and she played left wing for the team. In 1967, she played internationally again in Germany. Her final tour came in 1969 when she traveled with the Great Britain Pioneers Lacrosse Team to Australia with the goal of modern lacrosse to the Aussies. That year she went to New Zealand on to Honk Kong, Tokyo and back to Amsterdam “introducing our sport to the world.” However, only a year later Australia would come to the US and defeat them. Alison recounts, “I think we taught them too well.”

In a time when intercollegiate athletics is often criticized as being separate or auxiliary to the mission of higher education, Mount Holyoke has embraced athletics as another learning laboratory on campus. The national championship provides the opportunity for students who are athletes and for those who are not to test their leadership skills in a real world environment.

Who are the FHOCers?The Field Hockey Organizing Committee (FHOCers) is a group of Mount Holyoke College students who have volunteered to participate in the planning and execution of the NCAA Field Hockey National Championship. This group of eighteen women has been meeting regularly since spring 2009. The group includes students who are varsity athletes and those who are not. Each of the FHOCers oversees her own project team that she was expected to assemble and lead.

Mount Holyoke’s Unique Approach to the Championship OrganizationMount Holyoke has approached the planning for the NCAA national championship

in a way that is consistent with the expectations of a liberal arts institution. The College views this championship as a leadership practicum for its students. Under the guidance of administrative and faculty mentors, students have been engaged in the strategic planning, budgeting, management, and leadership aspects of hosting a national event.

A Championship for Students Organized by StudentsMount Holyoke’s approach to the planning of the field hockey national championship values the direct input of students. From the bid process through the final evalua-tion of the event, students have and will play a critical role. For example, students had the opportunity to visit potential hotel sites and provided input on which hotels would offer a more welcoming and comfortable environment. From the creation of warm-up mixes to the choice of pregame meals, the students have provided their expertise in making the championship one that is student-friendly.

Campus and Community OutreachThe FHOCers have engaged a diverse group of students from across campus to assist in the execution of the championship plans. An unprecedented number of students have been involved on the FHOCers’ project teams and will play various roles as volunteers throughout the weekend event. Student organizations and athletics teams are working together to make the championship experience for all involved one that is exceptional.

Early in the planning stages, representatives of various constituent groups such as high school coaches, community organizers, physical education instructors, and political leaders were identified as being important stakeholders in the success of the championship. They were consulted on how their constituents might be approached in order to embrace this championship as their own. This reinforces the importance of building alliances in order to develop robust networks of resources and support.

MESSIAH COLLEGENOTES

Scouting The FalconsMessiah arrives to its 13th Final Four with a 21-0 record, marking only the second time in program history that the team arrived to the biggest stage with an unblemished mark. The other occurred during the 1984 campaign, where Bloomsburg University dealt the Falcons a 3-2 defeat in the national championship game for the team’s only loss of the year.

The Falcons advanced to this weekend’s event behind a 3-2, overtime win over Commonwealth Conference rival Lebanon Valley College in NCAA Third Round action at Anderson Field. It was Messiah’s third win over the Flying Dutchmen on the year, as the team handed LVC a 4-1 defeat during regular-season play on Oct. 21 and a 2-1 loss in the Commonwealth Championship game Nov. 7.

Those games marked the first time in program history that Messiah faced an opponent three times in a single season. The final Messiah-LVC tilt was also the teams’ first ever meeting in the NCAA Tournament. The Falcons now hold a 36-14-4 record over Lebanon Valley in the overall series.

Messiah is led by NFHCA Division III South Atlantic Region Player of the Year Julie Barton, as the junior center midfielder has posted a team-leading 12 assists to go with eight goals. Junior Kourtney Ehly leads the team with 26 goals on the year — adding 11 assists — while senior Katie Love has notched 24 goals and 11 assists. Junior Amber Philpot is third on the team in scoring, tallying 12 markers.

The Falcons’ defense has posted 10 shutouts on the year, lead by senior and 2008 Longstreth/NFHCA Second Team All-American goalkeeper Ashley Mowery and her .832 save percentage. Mowery has allowed just 16 goals on the year. Overall, Messiah has outscored its opponents by a 107-17 margin.

Ranked Number One … OftenMessiah enters this weekend’s action ranked atop the final Kookaburra/NFHCA Division III Top 20 Poll, the ninth consecutive week the team has held that position. Messiah was ranked fourth in this year’s pre-season poll (Aug. 25), but quickly claimed the top spot in the first regular-season ballot (Sept. 15) — a position the team has not given up since.

Trapp Hits 500 As a byproduct of Messiah’s 2-1 win over Lebanon Valley College in the Commonwealth Conference game on Nov. 7, 37th-year head coach Jan Trapp recorded her 500th career victory, becoming the third collegiate head coach — at any level — to reach that plateau. Ironically, Trap coached her 700th collegiate game in Messiah’s next contest, as her record stands at 502-171-28 entering this weekend’s Final Four.

Currently, there are four coaches who have 500 or more wins in within NCAA Field Hockey: Trapp, Bloomsburg University head coach Jan Hutchinson (591 wins), Old Dominion University head coach Beth Anders (506 wins) and University of Connecticut head coach Nancy Stevens (500). No coach – past or present – has coached as many collegiate field hockey games as Trapp, a 2008 inductee into the NFHCA Field Hockey Hall of Fame.

THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF MESSIAH COLLEGE ATHLETICS

Barton Is BestWhen junior midfielder Julie Barton was named the 2009 NFHCA Division III South Atlantic Region Player of the Year, she became the third Messiah player to garner that award since its inception in the early ‘90s. When Barton was named a Longstreeth/NFHCA All-American at the conclusion of last season, she became Messiah’s 21 First Team All-American.

While Barton’s statistical numbers may not blow folks away, her penchant for starting the Messiah attack is hard to miss. Two of Barton’s eight goals on the year have come in sudden-death overtime.

“Julie is an outstanding player, and she’s the ultimate competitor,” said Jan Trapp, Messiah head coach. “She could have more goals on the season, but she’s extremely unselfish. She would rather pass up a good shot to get her teammates a great shot. She sees the field extremely well, and seems to always come up with the ball when she’s around it. You’ll see her back on defense and in our at-tack, she does it all. Some players know what needs to be done some of the time. Julie knows what needs to be done all the time.”

Barton was also named the Commonwealth Conference Player of the Year, Messiah’s first league POY since 2006 grad Aftan Fisher shared the honor in the 2005 campaign. Barton was Messiah’s first lone recipient since 2004 graduate Danae Chambers completed her run of four consecutive honors.

No Patsies Messiah has faced arguably the toughest schedule in the country this year, with 11 of the team’s total 21 games coming against opponents ranked in the Kookaburra/NFHCA Top 20. (See schedule on first page for specific rankings of opponents at time of competition.)

Against The FieldMessiah dealt Ursinus College a 4-3 defeat at Messiah on Sept. 5. A three-goal stretch encompassing under two minutes of game clock in the first half paced that win.

Messiah handed Salisbury University a 3-2 overtime loss Sept. 19, being forced to extra time after a last-second goal from the Sea Gulls at the end of regulation. Junior Julie Barton carded an unassisted game-winner just 4:40 into the first extra frame.

Messiah did not face Tufts University this season, but saw its 2008 campaign end against the Jumbos in a 5-2 loss in the national semi-finals. Tufts blanked Messiah by a 3-0 count in the second half of that contest, leading to the team’s most lopsided loss of the season.

URSINUS COLLEGE FIELD HOCKEY • NCAA SEMIFINAL NOTES

We’re Number 1Th e Bears rank fi rst in Division III in several statistical categories. Th e Bears, as of the last report, ranked fi rst in scoring average (6.95 goals per game), goals per game (6.95), scoring margin (6.2), points per game (17.7) and penalty corners per game (15.1).

Setting Th e RecordSophomore forward Alyssa Th ren set a Centennial Conference record for goals in a season, as she scored her 32nd goal of the season in the win over Lynch-burg. She broke the previous record, held by current assistant coach and former standout Jennie Moore.

Setting Th e Record, part 2Th e Bears set a Centennial Confer-ence record for goals in a game with 15 against Bryn Mawr back on September 30. Th e Bears had held the previous record of 14, in a 14-1 win over Washington back on November 8, 2009.

Climbing Th e ChartsAs we mentioned earlier, Alyssa Th ren set a Centennial Conference record for goals in a season with 32. Provided she scores more goals this weekend, she could surpass 50 career goals (she is at 49 now). If she would hit 50 goals, she would be tied for tenth all-time in Centennial Conference history. Jennie Moore holds that record with 72 career goals from 2005 to 2008.

Ursinus Gets Player Of Th e Year, AgainJunior forward Megan Yoder was named Centennial Conference Player of the Year last week, marking the seventh straight year Ursinus has achieved that award.

Close To A RecordYoder is currently tied for third all-time for points in a season with 71 (26g-19a). Th e record is held by, you guessed it, Jennie Moore (31g, 20a), which was set last year.

Th rowing ZerosTh e Bears have posted ten shutouts this season, but, starting goalkeeper Erica Scott has only two solo shutouts while junior goalkeeper LauraLee Lightwood-Mater has one. Th e two, along with sophomore goalkeeper Jill Lukens, have combined for seven other shutouts throughout the season.

Still AroundTh ree of the assistant coaches, Moore, Kait Sutherland and Nikki Th ren, were members of the 2006 NCAA Division III Championship team.

We Have Our OwnDid you know that Ursinus houses a Hall of Fame? Th e Field Hockey Hall of Fame is located in the lobby of our fi eldhouse.

Headed to 700With the two wins in the Centennial Conference tournament, the Bears are now 631-337-73 all-time in school his-tory, dating back to the fi rst year of the program in 1919.

2009 Tufts NCAA Field Hockey Media Notes ►Tufts (18-1) makes its second straight appearance in the NCAA Division III Championship semi-finals on Saturday versus Salisbury. Last season at Ursinus College in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, Tufts defeated Messiah College, 5-2, in the national semifinals. The Jumbos got a goal from Michelle Kelly just 1:22 into the game for a 1-0 lead. Lindsay Griffith scored with 2:12 remaining in the first half to put Tufts up 2-1, but Messiah tied the game 2-2 heading into halftime. In the second half, Tamara Brown scored three goals for the Jumbos as they pulled away for the victory. Marianna Zak finished with seven saves. Tufts played for the 2008 NCAA Championship against Bowdoin College and lost 3-2 in double overtime. Brown had both goals in that game. ►The Jumbos, ranked fourth in the final 2009 National Field Hockey Coaches Association poll, received a first-round bye and hosted the NCAA second and third rounds at Bello Field for the second consecutive season. They defeated local rival MIT, 5-1, in the second round last Saturday (Nov. 14). Michelle Kelly scored a hat trick in the game, including two goals 25 seconds apart in the first 3:26 of the game. Amanda Russo and Jess Perkins also scored for Tufts, while Marianna Zak made five saves. In the NCAA Quarterfinals, Tufts scored a 4-1 victory against #9 Skidmore College. The Jumbos took an early lead when senior co-captain Margi Scholtes remained perfect for the season at four for four on penalty strokes when she scored just 1:27 into the action. Perkins then scored two similar goals before the end of the half and the Jumbos led 3-1 at intermission. Both came on direct strikes off penalty corner chances. She had scored an identical goal in the win over MIT a day earlier. In the second half, Kelly scored her fourth goal of the weekend for a 4-1 Jumbo lead. Zak needed to make just one save for the win. ►Tufts is making its third straight NCAA Tournament appearance and fifth overall. With the victories against MIT and Skidmore this fall, the Jumbos are 6-4 in NCAA action overall heading into this weekend. Last season, they won games against Springfield (4-0) and The College of New Jersey (2-1) at home before defeating Messiah (5-2) and losing to Bowdoin (3-2 in 2ot) at the “final four.” In 2007, Tufts won a first-round game at home against New England College, 6-0, before losing 2-0 at Salisbury in the second round. The Jumbos have a rematch with the Gulls this afternoon. The 1995 and 1998 Tufts teams that qualified both lost in the first round. Among the Jumbo players, Tamara Brown has 16 career points in NCAA play (6g, 4 a), Michelle Kelly has 12 (5g, 2a), Amanda Russo has eight (3 g, 2a), Jess Perkins has six (3 g), Margi Scholtes has six (1g, 4a), Melissa Burke has four (2g), Tess Guttadauro has four (1g, 2a), Lindsay Griffith has two (1g) and Amanda Roberts has two (1g). Marianna Zak has played 437 minutes in goal during the NCAA’s, allowing eight goals and making 29 saves for a 1.28 goals against average and .784 save percentage. Katie Hyder has played 140 NCAA minutes with two goals allowed and six saves (1.00 GAA, .750 SV%). ►This year, Tufts earned an automatic NCAA berth after winning its first New England Small College Athletic Conference title. The Jumbos defeated Trinity College 3-2 on Nov. 9 in the conference championship game. The Jumbos opened the 2009 season on September 12 with a 3-1 win over Middlebury, which was in the 24-team NCAA Tournament field. Tufts won its first 10 contests,

Page 22: Mount Holyoke College · 2009 NCAA DIVISION III FIELD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW By: Bob Birge (NCAA.com Correspondent) Saturday’s Division III national semifinal between top-ranked

stretching a regular-season unbeaten streak to 30 games. Wins over NCAA qualifying teams Amherst and UMass Dartmouth were included in that run. A 2-1 overtime loss at home to Trinity on October 17 is the only defeat of the year. They rebounded from that with five consecutive shutout wins. ►Tufts is ranked #1 in the 2009 NCAA Statistics with a 0.575 goals against average, allowing 11 goals in 1,338 minutes played (Salisbury is second at 0.577). Goalkeeper Marianna Zak leads the NCAA with a 0.58 goals against average. She plays behind an outstanding defensive unit including senior co-captain Margi Scholtes, senior Emma Kozumbo, juniors Jess Perkins and Tess Guttadaura, sophomore Taylor Dyer, and first-year Rachel Gerhardt. The Jumbos are sixth in the country offensively with 4.11 goals scored per game entering the NCAA’s. Tamara Brown is ranked seventh in the NCAA Division III scoring race with 2.89 points per game. She has 21 goals and 13 assists for 55 points. Senior Michelle Kelly’s 13 goals and seven assists for 33 points, 12 goals and six assists for 30 points from senior Amanda Russo, and seven goals with four assists for 18 points from junior Melissa Burke make up a talented Tufts forward line. ►Senior co-captain and center-halfback Margi Scholtes was the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) New England West Region Player of the Year this season. She picked up where she left off last season for Coach Tina McDavitt’s Jumbos. Scholtes was the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Defensive Player of the Year and an NFHCA First Team All-American in 2008. This fall, Scholtes was an All-NESCAC First Team recipient and an NFHCA All-Region First Team selection. Her regional Player of the Year award is the first for the Tufts program. Her play on defense has helped Tufts post the best goals against average in the country with a 0.58 mark. Offensively, she has added six goals and three assists for 15 points to an attack that is sixth in the NCAA Division III with 4.11 goals per game. Scholtes plays a key role in the team’s penalty corner situations, and is also a perfect four for four on penalty strokes. She scored on a stroke to give Tufts a 1-0 lead in its eventual 4-1 victory over Skidmore last Sunday in the NCAA quarterfinals. “She is one of the toughest kids ever,” Coach Tina McDavitt said. “She got hit in the Trinity game and thought she had a broken finger, and didn’t tell us until after the game. She had a fever before the Wesleyan game and didn’t tell anyone because she wanted to play. She’s all about the team. She’s super, super competitive and really determined on the field. She’s put in a lot of time and is a hard worker, so she expects a lot from herself and expects a lot from the team. She physically fit, comes to win, she’s emotionally into it, and is ready to go every day.” ►In her junior season this fall, Tamara Brown set the Tufts Field Hockey program’s records for points and goals in a career. She surpassed the previous marks of 97 points and 44 goals accumulated by Aryn Landau from 1987-90. Brown enters the weekend with 54 goals and 19 assists for 127 points in 53 career games. Brown set the program’s records for goals (28) and points (61) in a season last fall. Her 13 assists this season, more than double the six she had in the previous two years combined, is the second-best single-season total in team history. During Homecoming weekend at Tufts this year, Brown received the Athletic Department’s Murray J. Kenney Award for perseverance. She overcame an ACL tear late in her freshman season of 2007 to become a record-breaking player. ►Five members of the Tufts field hockey team were 2009 Longstreth/National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) New England West Region All-Stars. The five awards were the most for any team in the region. For the second straight season, junior Tamara Brown, senior co-captain Margi Scholtes, and junior Amanda Roberts were voted on to the All-Region First Team. Second Team recognition went to sophomore defender Taylor Dyer and junior midfielder Jess Perkins. Brown was selected as the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Player of the Year for the 2009 season. The team’s first Player of the Year, Brown was joined by conference Coach of the Year

Tina McDavitt, Dyer (All-NESCAC 1st Team), Scholtes (All-NESCAC 1st Team), Perkins (All-NESCAC 2nd Team), and Roberts (All-NESCAC 2nd Team) as Jumbos who were honored by the league. Scholtes, Brown, and Roberts earned NFHCA All-American honors last season, garnering 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Team accolades respectively. ►Tufts has advanced into the national spotlight during Coach Tina McDavitt's six years on the job. Their 61-13 record over the last four seasons includes a 37-3 mark in 2008 and 2009 combined. Tufts had the best winning percentage in the NCAA's Division III last fall with their 19-2 record (.905). McDavitt has been voted by her peers as the New England Small College Athletic Conference Coach of the Year for two straight seasons. Her ’07 team earned the program’s first NCAA Tournament victory, 6-0 at home against New England College. Tufts has a 79-26 record overall during McDavitt’s six seasons. A 2000 Boston University graduate, she was hired as the sixth coach of Tufts Field Hockey in June 2004. At BU, she was a four-year standout and captain of the 1999 team. She led the Terriers to an undefeated America East Conference championship that season. An assistant at Holy Cross prior to Tufts, McDavitt won two Massachusetts state championships while playing for the Walpole High School team in 1994 and 1995. Still an active player, McDavitt is a member of US Field Hockey’s national indoor team. She won a silver medal at the Pan Am Games in December 2005. She is assisted at Tufts by Dani Ryder, Craig Rowe and volunteer Troy Zirbel. ►Player quotes about the keys to the team’s success this year: Senior co-captain Amanda Russo: “I think that the key to our success this season has been our focus on simplifying. Since preseason, we have emphasized a one game, one move, one pass approach that has enabled us to give our undivided attention to each challenge. NCAA’s are no exception. We will continue to break down everything so that each obstacle is one that we can confidently overcome.” Senior co-captain Margi Scholtes: “I think our biggest strength has been our team dynamic and chemistry. Like Tina our coach said in the beginning of the season, the team that is going to win a national championship is the team that loves each other the most. The girls on the Tufts field hockey team are not only teammates, but they are a family and group of friends.” Russo and Scholtes were selected to play in this year’s National Field Hockey Coaches Association Division III Senior All-Star Game. The game will be played on Sunday, November 22 at Mount Holyoke College starting at 9:30 am. The Tufts pair hopes to miss the game due to their participation in the NCAA Championship Game later that day. ►As members of the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC), Tufts plays in the nation’s most competitive small college conference academically and athletically. The NESCAC is a group of highly selective liberal arts colleges and universities that share an academics-first philosophy for intercollegiate athletics. Tufts was a recipient of the 2008 National Field Hockey Coaches Association National Academic Team Award as a program with better than a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. Additionally, 13 Jumbos were named to the NFHCA National Academic Squad with grade point averages of 3.3 or better during the Fall 2008 semester. ►Located right outside of Boston, Tufts offers a well-rounded collegiate experience to student-athletes. Within its picturesque small-college campus, Tufts is a major university with “an unprecedented diversity of programs, exceptional faculty and staff, and bright and talented students,” according to President Lawrence S. Bacow. The Athletics Department sponsors a varsity program of 28 sports that is among the most competitive in the NCAA's Division III. Tufts finished 10th in the 2009 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup, which awards points based on NCAA performances. The University's proximity to a world-class city renowned for its academic institutions is also a major draw.

Salisbury University has been honored during itsXXX-year participation in the Capital AthleticConference to have XXXX players named All-

Conference. This season, XXXX Sea Gulls werenamed to the squads.

Looking for Number FiveThe Salisbury field hockey program has won four national championships, taking home thehardware in 1986, 2003, 2004 and 2005. In its four championship seasons, Salisburyposted a combined record of 84-2.

Keep Them ComingWith Sunday’s 3-2 victory against SUNY Cortland, the Sea Gulls have now won 12 straightmatches. It marks the program’s longest winning streak since the 2007 season whenSalisbury won 19 straight.. The longest winning streak in school history is a 44-gamestreak that ran from midway through the 2003 streak and did not end until an October lossto Catholic University of America in 2005.

Looking for a RecordSenior Lauren Correll found the back of the cage Sunday against SUNY Cortland, duringthe Sea Gulls’ 3-2 victory. The goal the eventual game-winner, her third this year. ON the2009 season, Correll has scored 20 goals, which puts her up to 78 in her career, just twoshy of the Salisbury program record of 80, held by Jill Cressor (1999-02).

Brick Wall in the GoalSalisbury’s rock-solid defense has been supplemented by sophomore goalkeeper AnnaCooke, who entered the NCAA tournament ranked No. 2 in the nation with a GAA (goalsagainst average) of 0.54. Cooke is tied for eighth in program history for shutouts, havingalready posted 16 in her two-year career. She is on pace to set that record, which is 28,held by Maria Ramoundos (2004-07) and Kristin Archer (1995-97).

While Cooke is the last line of defense, the defense in front of her shares in hersuccess. Led by juniors Tara McGovern, Emily Ellenberger and sophomore McGovern, thedefense has held strong all season for Salisbury, allowing few chances to get through toCooke.

Shutting ‘Em OutThe maroon and gold entered the NCAA tournament tied for No. 1 in the nation inshutouts, with an average of 0.59 per game. Salisbury has now posted 11 shutout victoriesthis season. The team Salisbury was tied with entering the tournament was today’sopponent, Tufts University, which allowed a goal in each of its two tournament games overthe weekend.

Making an Immediate ImpactSalisbury has relied on two freshman to have an impact on the team in their first year withthe program. Back Emily Ellenberger and midfielder Kristina Fusco have seen action innearly every game this season. Fusco has started five games, while playing in all 19;Ellenberger has played in 17, starting 14, and each has played a big part in Salisbury’ssuccess. Fusco enters play this weekend as Salisbury’s third-leading scorer and goal scorer.She has found the back of the cage eight times and added three assists for 19 points whileEllenberger has been a part of Salisbury’s dominant defense, making three defensive savesthis year.

Dealing With AdversityIt has not been an easy ride to the national semifinals this weekend for SalisburyUniversity. The Sea Gulls have had to deal with a handful of injuries and illnesses. Likemany teams around the country, the Sea Gulls dealt with a bout of the flu, and battledthrough, they lost All-American Kandice Hancock early in the season to a leg injury, andfollowed with fellow midfielder Courtney Webster going down to a season-ending injury.Salisbury has rallied to advance to this weekend’s action.

#2 Salisbury 3, #5 Cortland 2

The No. 2 ranked Salisbury University field hockey teamdefeated No. 5 ranked SUNY Cortland on Sunday afternoon,3-2, to advance to the semifinal round in the NCAA DivisionIII field hockey tournament. The Sea Gulls will now travel toSouth Hadley, Mass., to face No. 4 ranked Tufts Universityon Saturday, Nov. 21.

"We knew it was going to be a really intensegame," said head coach Dawn Chamberlin of today's match-up. "They're strong, fast and very well coached." Indeed, itwas intense, as both teams committed a slew of fouls andeach drew one green card in the game. The Sea Gulls andRed Dragons were fairly evenly matched in penalty corners,with Salisbury having 14 opportunities and SUNY Cortlandhaving 10. Four of those corner opportunities for the RedDragons came in the last five minutes of play as theyscurried to catch up to the Sea Gulls' 3-1 lead, with SUNYCortland player Liz DeWaters putting a shot past sophomoregoalkeeper Anna Cooke (Ann Arbor, Mich.) (three saves) inthe 69th minute of play. The maroon and gold, unfazed,maintained their 3-2 lead for the last 14 seconds of thegame and took down the previously undefeated RedDragons (19-1). With the win, the Sea Gulls improved theirrecord to 18-1.

Salisbury fought for possession throughout theentire game, outshooting SUNY Cortland 15-8. The RedDragons scored the first goal of the game in the 14thminute, marking the fifth time this season that the Sea Gullshave trailed in a match. In the 26th minute, sophomoreback Tara McGovern (Yorktown Heights, N.Y.) evened up thescore off an assist from senior forward Lauren Correll(Bridgeville, Del.). Salisbury and SUNY Cortland enteredhalftime tied, with one goal apiece.

Both teams remained tied for almost 20 minutesinto the second half, until sophomore forward AlisonBloodsworth (Delmar, Md.) fired a shot that went past RedDragon keeper Ashley Hughes (eight saves). Just 26seconds later, in the 63rd minute of play, Correll scored theunassisted game-winning goal off of a fast break. That goalgave Salisbury the 3-1 lead with just six minutes left to play,but the Sea Gulls maintained their composure and finishedthe game strong. "I knew that the [final] goal was going tobe essential in winning the game. Two goals isn't enoughagainst a team like Cortland," said Correll.

Last year, SUNY Cortland handed Salisbury its final loss ofthe season in the second-round of the NCAA tournament, asthe Red Dragons defeated the Sea Gulls, 4-3, in overtime.Salisbury advances to the semifinal round of the NCAAtournament for the first time since 2007.
