SCHENECTADY, N.Y. – Union College's five seniors combined for seven goals as the Dutchwomen rolled past Morrisville State College by a 9-0 score in non-conference field hockey action on Wednesday evening at Frank Bailey Field at Bertagna-Class of 1985 Stadium.
 
Senior Emily Dawson led Union (9-2) with a game-high five points, scoring two goals with an assist, and she was joined in the multi-goal column by classmate Isabel Lubin also with a pair of tallies. Fellow seniors Jill Bove, Eliza Munns and Caroline Werner also scored for the home team in the win, along with sophomore Grace Goddard and first-year Alyssa Pavano.
 
The win is Union's seventh straight at Frank Bailey Field without a loss this season, tying for the second-most home wins in a season in program history. Only the 2008 (8-0) and 1988 (8-0) teams have had more wins in Schenectady than this year's team, with three regular-season home games still left on the schedule.
 
Playing against a shorthanded Morrisville State (3-6) team, Union scored twice in 20 seconds to take an early lead. Bove opened the scoring at the 5:10 mark with her fourth of the season, stickhandling past a defender before firing a shot from the top of the arc. Less than a half-minute later, Pavano doubled the lead with a lifted shot that went off the goalie and just under the crossbar for her sixth goal of the year. Munns added a goal later in the period on a one-timer off a Goddard feed, as Union posted a 14-0 edge in shots over the first 15 minutes.
 
Union added three more goals as part of a 17-shot barrage in the second stanza, with two Dawson tallies sandwiched around a penalty stroke tally by Werner. Junior Ali Barrett earned the assist on Dawson's second score, the first point of her collegiate career.
 
The home team took just nine shots in the second half, but still found the net three times to account for the final score. Lubin scored in the 33rd and 53rd minutes for her second career multi-goal game, while Goddard also scored 47 seconds after Lubin's first tally off a nice feed from junior Grace Krebs.
 
Union finished the night with a 40-0 edge in shots, as first-year Sophie Brady and sophomore Ella Glucksman did not need to make a save.
 
Union has a big weekend of Liberty League play coming up, beginning on Friday with a 4 p.m. matchup at local rival Skidmore College.
