KEELAN'S HAT TRICK LIFTS NATIONALLY-RANKED RICHARD STOCKTON OVER ETOWN, 4-1

ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. --- Shannon Keelan recorded a hat trick and Danielle Rugoff added a goal and two assists as Richard Stockton downed Elizabethtown, 4-1, in Mid-Atlantic regional action on Saturday.  With the loss, the Blue Jays fell to 8-7-1 on the season.

Etown knotted the game at 1-1 after a first-half goal by Denise Gordon, but the Ospreys, who entered the game ranked No. 2 in the region and 12th in Division III, tallied three goals during a five-minute span of the second half to take command.
