DEDHAM, Mass. — Charlotte Hamilton tied the game up at 2-2 on a penalty stroke in the fourth quarter, but a Stonehill goal shortly after secured a 3-2 win for the Skyhawks Sunday afternoon.
Colgate got awarded the stroke 1:52 into the final quarter, and Hamilton converted for her second goal of the season.
Stonehill notched the go-ahead tally with just over eight minutes left after Makayla Strickulis scored her second of the contest. Strickulis' first goal gave the Skyhawks a 2-1 lead with 5:10 remaining in the second quarter. It came after Reagan Hickey tied the score at 1-1 nine minutes into the first.
The Raiders got on the board first with a goal from
Sarah Killcommons at the 8:39 mark of the opening quarter. The junior found the back of the cage following a shot by
Dani Palmer that got blocked by a defender.
Colgate had numerous other scoring chances throughout the game, finishing with a 7-1 advantage in corners and an 11-6 lead in shots, putting six on goal.

Chase Cmaylo, who had one saved by the goalie.
Tyler Argilagos had an opportunity with 3:46 left when she ripped a shot that the goalie stopped.
Lauren Widdowson had a shot denied on a defensive save following a penalty corner with just over three minutes left in the second. Earlier in the quarter, Cmaylo had another shot get saved.
In the first, Colgate drew a pair of corners and
Aaliyah Linfoot recorded two shots, both of which landed wide of the goal.
First-year goalie
Hayley Campbell made three saves in net.

"This was a tough weekend, we are down several starters. We have players stepping up leading and filling big roles with Ella, Rachel and Claire out. We created chances but did not execute when we had the opportunities. We need more consistency in our game which will help both when we score or if another team scores."

The Raiders are back home to take on Boston University at 4 p.m. Friday.
