Nationally 12th-Ranked Elizabethtown Hangs on for 1-0 Conference Win over Moravian

BETHLEHEM, Pa. --- In a game that had just five total shots, Elizabethtown College scored an early goal and clung to its 1-0 lead to defeat Commonwealth Conference rival Moravian College 1-0 on the road Saturday. Elizabethtown, which is currently ranked 12th in NCAA Division III, improved to 12-2 overall and 4-1 in the conference with the win, while Moravian dropped to 2-13 overall and 0-5 in the conference with the loss.

Elizabethtown out-shot Moravian 4-1 over the course of the game, and, during a penalty corner, Megan Angstadt (Oley, PA/Oley Valley) scored the game’s lone goal for Etown off a Laura Rinck (Selinsgrove, PA/Selinsgrove) assist 14:10 after the opening whistle. Elizabethtown goalie Kristen Callaghan (Langhorne, PA/Neshaminy) made one save to preserve the win.

Elizabethtown will return to action at home Tuesday, October 17 against the University of Scranton in a 4:30 p.m. non-conference game.
