Daubert's Goal in OT Gives Hens Second Loss in a Row

Senior Jessica Breault scored two goals and added an assist in the loss.

NORFOLK, VA -- No. 7 Old Dominion's Rachel Daubert's scored on a breakaway up the middle at 84:47 to down the No. 11 University of Delaware field hockey team, 6-5, in overtime Sunday afternoon in Norfolk.

Senior Jessica Breault scored twice and added an assist for Delaware, while junior Erica LaBar registered a goal and an assist. The five goals allowed by Old Dominion is the most it has allowed in a CAA matchup since joinng the conference in 1991, and its the most goals Delaware has ever scored in a loss.

The Blue Hens (10-4, 2-2 CAA) fell behind 2-0 early in the first half on goals by Beth Maddox and Loy, but Breault and LaBar scored twice in a five minute span to even the score. Rogers scored at 23:26 to give the Monarch's (10-4, 5-0 CAA) a 3-2 lead before goals by Breault and freshman Katie Evans gave the Hens a 4-3 lead. Maddox scored for the Monarchs at 48:11 to even the score at four, but junior Jessi Balmer scored her team-high ninth goal of the year to give Delaware a 5-4 lead.

Freshman goalkeeper Megan Allen made five saves for Delaware, while Tina Walker posted 11 saves in net for ODU.

Delaware returns to action this Wednesday when it travels to Pennsylvania to take on Lafayette at 7 p.m.
