Last Time Out
New Haven got three goals each from Kathryn Campbell (Mansfield, Mass./Mansfield), Courtney Ackland (Perth, Western Australia/Churchlands) and Maya Szymanski (Framingham, Mass./Framingham) as the Chargers defeated the No. 20 Saint Anselm Hawks 13-9 in a Northeast-10 Championship quarterfinal on Wednesday evening at Arcadio 'Kayo' Rodriguez Field.

The Chargers scored the first two tallies of the game just over a minute in as Ackland and Szymanski recorded goals on their first shots of the contest. The game continued in two goal spurts each way as the Hawks tied the game at 2-2, before New Haven scored a pair of its own from Ackland and Corinne Fisher (Jackson, N.J./Jackson Memorial) to take a 4-2 lead at the 23:36 mark.

The two goal a side trend carried until the score was 6-4 in favor of the Blue and Gold on Ackland's third goal of the game with just more than six minutes left in the half. After Saint Anselm pulled to 6-5, the Chargers had the final say in the stanza as Campbell netted her second of the contest, propelling New Haven to a 7-5 halftime lead.

The Hawks rallied to score the first goal of the second half, but the Chargers went on a spurt, scoring four of the next five goals capped by Campbell's third goal of the night to make it 11-7 just before the midway mark of the frame. From there, each team held serve, netting two goals apiece with Szymanski scoring the final marker with 1:17 remaining to seal the contest.

In addition to the hat tricks from Campbell, Ackland and Szymanski, Caitlin O'Brien (Branford, Conn./Branford) scored a goal and added two assists with Fisher scoring a pair of goals and Nicole Belanger (Kinnelon, N.J./Kinnelon) adding one of her own.
