ONEONTA, N.Y. - Ainsley Stoll recorded a hat trick, including the game-winning goal with under nine minutes remaining, to lead Oneonta State to a 3-2 win over Rensselaer in a non-league field hockey game. RPI got goals from Julia Wright and Jessica Corrigan and four saves from Briana Earle. The Engineers are now 2-3, while the Red Dragons improve to 4-1.
Rensselaer was first to get on the board in the 16th minute when Wright found a loose ball in the box and tapped it into the back left corner of the cage.
It didn’t take long for the Red Dragons to strike back. Stoll recorded her first goal on the day by dribbling past the defense and pushing the ball past Earle to tie the game at one a piece going into the half.
Stoll continued her dominance scoring again in the 38th minute of play with a shot from the top of the circle.
Shortly after Rensselaer tied it back up at 2-2 with a redirect shot and goal for Corrigan.
After a shot hitting the post, Stoll kept her composure to record the hat trick, scoring her third goal in the 61st minute to put the Red Dragons ahead 3-2. Rensselaer had a shot in the final seconds of play that went wide but set up one last shot for the Engineers off of a penalty corner. The ball came into the box but only bounced around before the Oneonta defense knocked away to end the game.
