BOSTON, MA -- Casey Holman scored twice as Boston University held off a late charge and defeated Delaware, 3-2, in field hockey action at Nickerson Field Sunday afternoon.

Holman's second tally of the day gave Boston University a 3-1 lead with 19:40 to play. However, Freshman Erin Shaklee scored her second goal of the season to pull Delaware to within one with 11:44 to play.

The Blue Hens, though, could not come up with the equalizer.

Delaware (3-6, 1-1 America East) had jumped out to a 1-0 lead just 1:08 into the game. Kate Johnson scored off of a feed from Stephanie Dorsch to give the Blue Hens an early advantage.

The Terriers (5-2, 2-0 America East) tied the game just under nine minutes later on an unassisted goal by Robyn Kenney. Holman's first goal of the day with 5:09 left in the first half gave Boston University a 2-1 halftime advantage.

Boston University held a 29-11 advantage in shots and a 9-7 edge in penalty corners.

Delaware will host St. Joseph's Wednesday night at 7 p.m. at Rullo Stadium.
