York, Pa. - The Salisbury University field hockey team defeated Capital Athletic Conference foe York College, 2-1, on Saturday afternoon. The win improves Salisbury's record to 10-1 (3-0 CAC). So far this season, the maroon and gold have outscored their opponents an astonishing 56-6.

The final score does not reflect the tempo of the game, as the Sea Gulls maintained control of the ball for the majority of the 70 minutes. Salisbury outshot York (7-5, 2-2 CAC) 19-1, with 14 of those shots being on goal. The maroon and gold's defense was rock solid, as the Sea Gulls did not allow any corner opportunities for the Spartans. The Sea Gulls had 13 corner opportunities in the game, and Spartan goalie Claire Rekitzke (7-5) made 12 saves on the day.

The two Sea Gull scores of the game were from junior back Katie Fost (Lusby, Md.) and senior forward Lauren Correll (Bridgeville, Del.).
