Manchester, N.H. (August 31) -- Andrea Slaven (Danvers, Mass.) had a goal and an assist to lead Saint Michael's past Saint Anselm by a 2-0 final on Sunday afternoon in Northeast-10 Conference field hockey action.

The Hawks seemingly struck first midway through the first half when a blast from senior Ellen Maruwzewski (Leominster, Mass.) found the back of the net. That goal was waved off though and the two teams headed into the halftime break tied at 0-0.

Just over 10 minutes into the half it was the Purple Knights who took a 1-0 lead as a blast from Slaven was tipped in by Kaitlin Koffink (Goffstown, N.H.) for her first goal of the season. Slaven added an insurance goal at the 54:08 mark to account for the 2-0 final.

Riley Haddock (Falmouth, Maine) turned aside 12 shots in the loss, while Saint Michael's goalie Jordan Smalling (Essex Junction, Vt.) made five saves in the victory.

Saint Anselm is back in action on Thursday night as the Hawks take on Assumption under the lights beginning at 7 p.m.
