NEW LONDON, N.H. – September 5, 2015 – The Anna Maria College field hockey team scored three times in the second half as they spoiled Colby-Sawyer's home opener, 4-1 on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

Colby-Sawyer snapped the drought in the 58th minute when freshman Jordan Teixeira (Exeter, N.H.) notched her first collegiate goal.

Anna Maria added another goal with four minutes to play. Beauregard connected with teammate Nicole Denver (Springfield, Mass.) who beat the keeper to the right side.

AMCATS keeper Mary Kate Breen (Londonderry, N.H.) made eight saves to earn the win, while Jodi Dumayne (Claremont, N.H.) suffered the loss with three saves.  

The Chargers also held an edge in corners, 9-4.
