KING'S FIELD HOCKEY POSTS IMPORTANT CONFERENCE WIN
OVER DVC
WILKES-BARRE -- Debbie Wychock netted two
goals while Lindsay Sabo scored one goal and equaled a school
single-game record with four assists to lead the King's College field
hockey team to a 5-2 victory over Delaware Valley in an important
Freedom Conference field hockey match Monday in Doylestown.
With the win, 17th ranked King's improved to 13-2 overall and 4-1 in
Freedom Conference play. Delaware Valley, meanwhile, slipped to
7-7 and 2-3 in league action.
Wychock opened the scoring at 25:53 of the first half following an

just 5:33 later. King's would take a 3-0 halftime lead when Sarah
McGrady converted another assist from Sabo with 13:42 on the clock.
In the second stanza, Sabo would score on an assist from Grace King to
give the Lady Monarchs a 4-0 lead with 31:56 remaining. After a
Delaware Valley goal, Wychock gave King's a 5-1 advantage when she
struck net off Sabo's record-tying fourth assist of the game. The
Aggies would add the final goal with 0:21 left in the contest.
King's outshot Delaware Valley 31-15 while holding a 17-9 advantage in
penalty corners. Lady Monarch goalie Kari Leach made seven saves
on the day.
King's will return to action Thursday when the Lady Monarchs host
DeSales University at 4:00 p.m. at Betzler Fields.
