NEW LONDON, N.H. – October 19, 2016 – Sophomore Jordan Teixeira (Exeter, N.H.) and freshman Alie Jones (Cape Neddick, Maine) had two goals apiece to lead the Colby-Sawyer field hockey team past Mount Ida, 4-1 on Wednesday afternoon.

Teixeira opened the scoring 7:41 into the first half when she converted a break away under the Mount Ida goalie.

Jones doubled the Colby-Sawyer lead 52 seconds later after finishing a feed close to the cage from junior Paige Viens (Middlebury, Vt.).

Jones then set up Teixeira in the waning moments of the first half with a nifty pass through the defenders. Teixeira completed the play to score her sixth goal of the season and give the Chargers a 3-0 advantage heading into halftime.

In the 49th minute, Jones added an insurance goal in traffic in front of the goal to put the Chargers on top 4-0. The tally was her team best 15th of the season.

Mount Ida found the back of the cage with 1:40 left when freshman Taylor Lincoln (Rye, N.H.) beat the Colby-Sawyer goalie who came out to challenge the play. The goal was Lincoln's sixth of the season.
