Balance scoring paces Salisbury over Frostburg State, 5-0

SALISBURY, Md. - The No. 8 Salisbury University field hockey team continued its dominance at home as the Sea Gulls made quick work of in-state rival Frostburg State University on Saturday afternoon with a 5-0 shutout before 250 at Sea Gull Stadium.

Salisbury (6-1) received balance scoring as five different Sea Gulls found the back of the Frostburg (2-3) cage. SU dominated the first half as it outshot the Bobcats 14-0 and led 3-0 at the break.

SU got on the board 11 minutes into the game as sophomore Lauren Correll scored an unassisted goal in a scramble in front of the Bobcat cage. The goal was Correll's fifth goal of the season. Salisbury scored 15 minutes later as freshman midfielder Abby Tedford scored her first goal of her collegiate career. Two minutes later senior Danielle Twilley scored her team-high sixth goal of the season on a penalty stroke that beat FSU goalie Amanda Runion (five saves).

In the second half, Salisbury faced a new Frostburg goalie in Amanda Schemm (two saves) but got the same result as the Gulls scored twice late in the game. Sophomore Beverly Beladino went on a fast break for SU and was 1-on-1 with Schemm before Beladino squeaked the ball into the lower left corner. The unassisted goal was Beladino's fifth of the season. She added an assist nine minutes later as sophomore midfielder Caitlyn Ruffus knocked home the Beladino assist. Ruffus was left wide open on the left side of the goal as she scored her first goal of the season at the 69:37 mark.

The Sea Gulls outshot the Bobcats 21-3 and took 14 penalty corners. FSU had four penalty corners for the game, all in the second half. Salisbury is now 31-7-1 all-time against Frostburg State.

Salisbury ends its five-game homestand with a perfect 5-0 record and will travel to Westminster, Md., on Tuesday, September 18, for another in-state non-conference game.
