Say It Anyway You Like

Sienna Saints Slaughtered by UA Great Danes.
Danes Devour Saints.
Saints Mauled by Danes.
Albany Shuts Out Sienna, 7-0
Say it anyway you like, Sienna College was soundly trounced by the University at Albany in last Friday night's field hockey game. For those of you slightly in the know thinking, "Isn't 7 goals a lot for a game?", yes, it is. Field hockey, like ice hockey or baseball, is typically a low scoring game. . .generally 0-3 goals per team.

The women of Sienna had spirit, but Albany, as a result of superior stick work, repeatedly took control of the ball. The first two goals were hard fought, but after that the remaining 5 came so fast and frequent that I actually missed two of them! I glanced at the scoreboard. . . Holy crap! Another one? Um. . . go team!

The rest of the pics were mere blurs, so this all I have to show. Although I played field hockey for a season in high school, I've never been to a game as a spectator. So this was part of my 52 New Experiences in One Year plan (see future post for explanation).
