Chambers lifts field hockey to win

GORHAM -- Forward Kristin Chambers (Gorham, Maine) converted a penalty shot in the 22nd minute to lead the University of Maine Farmington Beavers to a 1-0 win over the University of Southern Maine Huskies Thursday afternoon at Paula D. Hodgdon Field on the Gorham campus.

The win is the third straight for the Beavers, who improved to 3-1 overall. The loss dropped the Huskies to 4-2 overall.
Chambers drove in the only goal her team needed after her team was awarded a penalty shot late in the second half. Chambers calmly slotted the ball to the left side of the cage for the game-winner. The goal was Chambers third of the season.

Southern Maine sophomore goalkeeper Allie Hill (Cape Elizabeth, Maine) helped keep the Huskies in the game, making several spectacular saves, including stopping UMF's second penalty stroke of the first half from Chambers. Hill finished the game with 11 saves.

UMaine Farmington goalkeeper Kaeleigh Barker (Chicester, N.H.) played well in goal recording a pair of saves and making numerous defensive clears.

UMaine Farmington travels to North Atlantic Conference opponent Husson College for a 7 p.m. game on Tuesday (Sept. 25). Southern Maine returns to action on the road Saturday (Sept. 22) when it travels to Eastern Connecticut State University for a 1 p.m. Little East Conference game.
