Susquehanna Slips Past Etown 1-0

ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. --- Despite holding a 13-5 advantage in penalty corners and a 9-6 edge in shots, Elizabethtown lost 1-0 to Susquehanna University at home Thursday in a Commonwealth Conference game. The Blue Jays drop to 1-8 overall and 0-2 in the conference with the loss, while Susquehanna improves to 3-4 overall and 1-1 in the Commonwealth with the victory.

Abby Dunlap scored the game's only goal for Susquehanna 12:04 into the first half.
