Box Score
HARRISONBURG, Va. – Field hockey made the journey to Eastern Mennonite University today. The Gators' attempt to step back into the win column was shut down early on in the 9-1 loss to the Royals. 

Trailing 5-0, freshman Jessica Wells netted a goal in the 31st minute to bring Notre Dame to within four just before the half. Wells secured the loose ball in front of a crowded net and beat the goalie for her second goal on the year, unassisted. 

Eastern Mennonite opened the second half with a 36th minute goal and never looked back, as the Royals scored three more times to ice the Gators. 

Senior De'Ja Martin posted another impressive performance, making 13 saves on 22 shots faced. Sophomore Megan Morales, along with Wells recorded the team's only two shots on goal in the loss. 

The club has some time to rest before meeting Cedar Crest (3-3, 0-1 CSAC) in Allentown, Pa. on Saturday for a 1 p.m. matchup.
