WORCESTER, Mass. — In a tight, defensive matchup at Holy Cross, the LIU Sharks field hockey squad went to overtime against the Crusaders on Sunday morning.

The Sharks got on the board early thanks to a goal from freshman defender Jasmijn Roelofsen off a pass from forward Malena Silvani.

Another freshman for LIU netted their first collegiate goal when forward Lotte Haagmans took a Holy Cross turnover and flipped it in the back of the net to put the Sharks up 2-0 early. 

After the Crusaders tied the score at two, sophomore GiGi Ranoldo tallied her second goal of the season off a tip-in with Juana Laskowski notching the assist. 

Holy Cross responded quickly with a goal and the eventual game-winner in overtime.

LIU moves to 1-1 on the season with their next contest coming next Sunday, September 8, against Bellarmine University.
