BOX SCORE
St. Davids, Pa. (Sept. 20, 2011) - Alvernia (4-2) got a goal from
Sam Landis (Watsontown, Pa./Warrior Run) in the first half and
Lauren Guido (Fleetwood, Pa./Fleetwood) added an insurance goal late in the second half as Alvernia defeated host Eastern University (2-3) this afternoon in non-conference action.
Landis opened the scoring with her team-leading third goal of the season off of Alvernia's lone penalty corner chance in the first half. Her goal came in the 29th minute of a fairly even first half otherwise, with Alvernia tallying four shots to Eastern's five and earning one penalty corner to Eastern's three.
The game remained 1-0 for most of the second half before Guido found a rebound and slotted it back into the left side of the net in the 69th minute. The Crusaders outshot the Eagles 7-3 in the second half.
