Mustangs Post Third-Straight Shutout Over Neumann

Box Score

Box score

OWINGS MILLS, Md. - Much like Saturday's win over Delaware Valley, Stevenson field hockey freshman Leah Warner (Pasadena/Northeast) scored her first collegiate goal on what proved to be a game-winner as the Mustangs opened the season with their third consecutive victory as they downed Neumann 1-0 Sunday in the Black-Eyed Susan Tournament.

The Mustangs (3-0) are the first team in program history to start a season with three-straight wins and just as noteworthy is the fact that all three have come by shutout as the team has outscored its opponents, 7-0.

Stevenson also holds a 75-12 edge in shots over its first three games with all 12 of those coming against Delaware Valley. The Mustangs also hold a 31-8 margin in penalty corners.

Entering Sunday's game, Stevenson needed five points to overtake FDU-Florham for the Black-Eyed Susan Tournament title, but came up just half-a-point short after the first half ended in a scoreless tie.

The tournament champion is decided on a point system in which teams receive three points for a win, one for winning a half and half-a-point for a tie in a half.

For their efforts, junior Ashley Beam (Reisterstown/North Carroll) and freshman Leah Willing (Princess Anne/Holly Grove Christian) were named to the all-tournament team.

Complete tournament results can be found here.

After a scoreless 49 minutes, Warner managed to put the Mustangs ahead for good after redirecting a rebound off Knight keeper Lindsey Kasecamp who stopped an initial shot from sophomore Kaitlyn May (Arnold/Archbishop Spalding).

Despite not having to make save, senior Kara Zimmerman (Odenton/Arundel) earned her second shutout of the season and the eighth of her career.

Stevenson dominated the game, out-shooting Neumann 20-0 and holding a 14-1 advantage in penalty corners.

Kasecamp finished with 12 saves for the Knights (0-2).

The Mustangs look to extend their winning streak to a program-record four on Wednesday when they open their CAC schedule at York (Pa.). Game time is at 4:00 p.m.
