Field Hockey Hosts the Billikens on Senior Day – Friday
Friday night the Wildcats will host the Billikens at Belk Turf Field.
The Davidson field hockey team will conclude its home schedule Friday when it hosts Saint Louis in Atlantic 10 Conference play.
It’s also Senior Day, and the Wildcats will honor their class of 2022 prior to the 5 p.m. game.
Four Wildcats will be recognized: Chloe Appleby, Grayson Buben, Izzy Moody and Julia Smith.
“This senior class has given so much to our program,” said Davidson coach Zoe Almquist. “They have been here right alongside our staff, each and every step of the last three years of this journey. I am so grateful for their commitment to their teammates and to our collective goals. It has been a pleasure to watch them grow as students, hockey players and as people. And, I can’t wait to see their successes as they transition into life off the field.”
Last Time Out
Julia Smith’s penalty shot with 4:05 left in double overtime pushed the Wildcats past A-10 foe Lock Haven 2-1 last Sunday.
Macy Curtis provided the Wildcats’ first goal, two minutes into the third period, following a penalty corner.
Scouting the Billikens
Saint Louis is also coming off a double-overtime win. The Billikens rallied from a 2-0 first half deficit Sunday to beat Central Michigan 3-2. Demi Sahuleka scored the game-winner.
