Field Hockey shuts out BU in opening round of NCAA tournament

BOSTON, MA – Miami University field hockey team continues its hot streak beating No. 22 Boston University in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament Wednesday afternoon.

“We feel amazing to come here all the way to Boston and be able to execute against a rival,” head coach Iñako Puzo said.

Miami was held to one shot and the Terriers were held to just three during the first half as both teams displayed their strong defensive play. But in the second half, Miami was able to come away with two goals Boston would never recover from.

The scoring opened in the 55th minute when senior midfielder Paula Portugal found senior back/midfielder Mariona Heras in the middle of the circle.
