LYNCHBURG, VA - Freshman midfielder Kelli Williams scored
the game's only two goals to lead the top-seeded Lynchburg College
field hockey team to a 2-0 victory over #2 Randolph-Macon College
in the finals of the 2010 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC)
Championship tournament. It is the Hornets fifth-straight ODAC
crown and the 14th in program history.
The Hornets out-shot Randolph-Macon 12-3 in the first half and had
a 7-0 edge in penalty corners, but the game was scoreless heading
into halftime. Nicole Woodworth made five first-half saves to
keep the game tied at 0-0.
Williams broke the tie at the 37:58 mark, deflecting in a Shelly
Milks (Gloucester, VA/Gloucester) shot into the back of the cage.
She struck a second time five minutes later, again deflecting in a
shot, this time from Kristina Morris.
The Hornets held a 34-5 shot advantage for the game and 14-3 in
penalty corners. Woodworth had 17 saves for the game, while
Hornet keeper Tiffany Frye (Williamsburg, VA/Bruton) made five
stops.
Randolph-Macon ends its season at 13-7, while the Hornets await
the release of the 2010 NCAA Division III Tournament, to be
announced Monday morning. It is LC's sixth-straight berth into the
national tournament.
