Bowdoin Blasts Past Colby in Midweek Matchup

BRUNSWICK, Maine – The Bowdoin field hockey team's offense exploded for an 8-3 win over Colby on Tuesday night.
 
The Polar Bears (9-4, 4-4 NESCAC) extend their winning streak against the Mules (5-8, 1-8 NESCAC) to 17 consecutive games, dating back to 2004.
 
Game Highlights
  • Bowdoin had a 3-0 lead by the end of the first quarter, with goals by Faith Jennings, Jill Cloonan, and Sophia Rosati.

  • Coetzer got the first of two identical goals in the third quarter three minutes in and another with less than a minute to play. Both goals came as Caroline Higgins inserted to a Jennings stick stop and Coetzer blast.
  • Sandwiched between Coetzer's quarter opening and closing goals, Casey Winslow and Shaw each scored for Colby. Cloonan added her second of the day as well.
  • Bommer also had a two goal game with a late fourth period goal off a rebound.
