Box score

ASHLAND, Va. - Stevenson field hockey freshman Kaitlyn May (Arnold/Archbishop Spalding) scored her first career goal off an assist from sophomore Jorden Haney (Elkridge/Long Reach), but Mary McCarthy scored twice to lead Randolph-Macon to a 4-1 non-conference victory Thursday evening.

The loss was the third-straight for the Mustangs (3-8) and third in the four road games this season.

Meanwhile, it was the fourth consecutive win for the Yellow Jackets (4-8), all of which have come at home, after they started the season 0-8.

Stevenson held a 10-9 edge in shots in the first half, but trailed 2-1 at halftime after back-to-back Randolph-Macon goals just 1:32 apart in the game's first 10 minutes.

McCarthy, who leads R-MC with seven goals and 17 points this season, scored her first goal only eight minutes in off an assist from Kate Coutherut before Meredith Young scored on a pass from Nicole Klee at 9:32.

Coutherut and Klee each finished with two assists.

May would then pick up her first of the year with just over 20 minutes remaining in the half to pull the Mustangs within one.

McCarthy and Coutherut would connect again less than three minutes into the second half before Klee picked up her second assist on Jamie Shifrin's first goal of the season with 10 minutes remaining.

Nicole Woodworth made five saves for the Yellow Jackets and has now won her first four career starts since taking over for Kortney McLaughlin.

Junior Kara Zimmerman (Odenton/Arundel) had 13 saves for Stevenson and now has 339 for her career, 31 shy of the school record set by Kim Forbes from 1998-99.

The Mustangs return home to face No. 17 Christopher Newport on Saturday at Caves Athletics Complex beginning at 3:30 p.m.
