Aurora, NY – Second half goals from Marywood University's Tori Jo Kakusian and Kirsten Webb lifted visiting Marywood University to a 2-1 win over host Wells College Tuesday afternoon in non-conference field hockey action.  Marywood improved to 6-7 overall while the Express fell to 0-12 on the year.

In the first half of play, Marywood and Wells played to a 0-0 score despite the visitors out-shooting the Express by a 5-to-3 margin. The Pacers, however, scored in the first 3:49 of the second half after Kakusian fired a blast through a wide-open crease that Wells goalkeeper Sydney Line was unable to stop.

Trailing by a 1-0 margin, Marina Fargnoli fought through heavy crease traffic at 46:19 and forced the ball past Marywood goalkeeper Kayle Huey for the equalizer. The Pacers, however, came right back with the go-ahead goal at 47:40 as Leanne McManus sent a right-to-left ball that was tipped home inside the right post by Webb.
 
In addition to holding the 12-to-9 shot advantage, the Pacers also held the 7-to-5 advantage in penalty corners.
 
Line drew the loss for Wells, making six saves on eight shots faced. Huey picked up the win despite allowing one goal on four shots.
 
Marywood returns to action Saturday with a trip to Immaculata University for a CSAC match-up at 1:00 pm.
