OWINGS MILLS, Md. – Led by six points from senior Caitlin Dempsey, the seventh-seeded Stevenson field hockey team outscored third-seeded Lebanon Valley 2-0 in the second half en route to a 5-3 victory in the ECAC Division III Mid-Atlantic Field Hockey semifinal Saturday afternoon at Mustang Stadium.

The Mustangs (14-7), who held Lebanon Valley without a shot in the second half, advance to the title game and will face fifth-seeded Arcadia beginning at 12:00 p.m.

The Dutchmen (15-5) had the first three chances of the game but sophomore Gabriella Brooks came up with three-straight saves. Brooks finished with six saves on the day, all in the first half.

Stevenson made the best of its first opportunity as a penalty corner by senior Alison Kagel found the stick of senior Ariella Hopp. Hopp fired a shot from outside the circle and sophomore Rosemarie Neiva redirected in for her 11th goal of the season. Neiva has scored five goals in the last five games.

Less than six minutes later Dempsey found Kagel who was alone on the back post to put the Mustangs up by two. It is the fourth time in as many games the senior duo have connected for a goal.

Lebanon Valley would go on the score the next three goals and take a 3-2 lead as Molly Van Leuvan scored twice while Lauren Brumbach totaled a goal and an assist.

However, the Mustangs scored five minutes before the half to level the game at one as Dempsey redirected a shot from Hopp off a penalty corner from Kagel.

Sophomore Holli Eppley scored the game-winner just 6:03 into the second half on an assist from Dempsey, who would add an insurance goal in the 55th minute to increase Stevenson's lead by two.

The Mustangs outshot Lebanon Valley 14-12 while the Dutchmen held an 11-8 edge in penalty corners.

The Knights edged Stevenson 4-2 earlier this season as Arcadia scored two second half goals in the games final 10 minutes.
