Central Michigan field hockey snapped its 14-game losing streak on Senior Day against Ball State in a Mid-American Conference matchup at the CMU Field Hockey Complex.
The Chippewas (2-15, 1-4 MAC) defeated the Cardinals (2-13, 2-3 MAC) 1-0 with strong defense and earned their first win since the month of September. Friday’s win also marks the first home conference win for the Chippewas since Oct. 16 2015 against Missouri State.
Sophomore back Samantha Glapinski opened the scoring on a penalty corner when she deflected a shot from senior back Kayla McClure to give the Chippewas the advantage at the 21 minute mark of the game.
