POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - Despite conceding 11 tries the Loundonville, NY school never threw in the towel and was finally rewarded with a score that brought a loud cheer from all watching this Tri-State Conference game at Vassar College Farm in Poughkeepsie, NY. It was a rough day for the Brewers with a few injuries as
Makena Emery hurt her shoulder and had to leave the field and both
Kira Nolan and
Halle Hutchinson also took knocks.
Vassar College Women 71 v 5 Siena College Women
Tries: Oshana Reich (4), Kira Nolan (1), Molly Lynch (3), Marron McConnell (1), Meg Martin (1) & Claudia Lasch (1).
Cons: Makena Emery (4) & Aislinn Vinces-Dimas (4).
Oshana Reich was fast and furious while on the field scoring 4 tries and the Vassar forwards dominated both possession and territory. The Brewers established themselves early with
Kira Nolan at the helm and the team never looked back.
There were a couple of injuries, one that required an ER visit but for the most part it was not a particularly hard physical game. The second half did see the Siena Women win some ball and put Vassar on the back foot.
Molly Lynch scored a hat trick of tries and the kicking of first Emery and then Vinces-Dimas, put this game to bed early.
