Mountaineer field hockey lose in semifinal of MAC tournament

App State field hockey traveled to Harrisonburg, Virginia Wednesday and Thursday for the Mid-American Conference tournament. They won their first game against Ohio University before losing in the semifinals to the University of Massachusetts.

Opening the tournament as the No. 3 seed, the Mountaineers took the field against the No. 6 seed Bobcats in the quarterfinals.

The Black and Gold got on the board first with a goal in the final minute of the opening quarter, scored by sophomore midfielder Frederique Grimbergen.

App State added to its lead in the second quarter. Great ball movement from the Mountaineers led to an open net, and Grimbergen capitalized with her second goal of the game.
