Mandi, the women’s ice hockey center whose battle with cancer helped draw record-setting numbers of people to Yale’s first two drives, had passed away just 18 days before Thursday’s drive. With her tragic story still fresh in everyone’s minds, the Bulldogs banded together and added nearly 900 people to the Be The Match Registry in Mandi’s honor. It was the second biggest drive of its kind, trailing only Yale’s drive from a year ago.

The goal was to keep momentum from the record-setting 2009 campaign going. Now -- with one game left in the season, at Brown on Saturday -- the Bulldogs have a chance to do just that by matching or exceeding the marks they established a year ago. Wed, 03 Nov 2010 04:00:00 GMT http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-fieldh/2010-11/releases/201011036kegq8 2010-11-03T04:00:00Z http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-fieldh/2010-11/releases/20101030rnrcn1 Pushed to overtime by Columbia for the second year in a row, the Yale field hockey team once again found a way to respond. Junior forward Mia Rosati slipped one over the goal line 1:22 into the extra session to lift Yale to a 3-2 win. It was the fifth win in a row for the Bulldogs, who can tie the school record for victories in Ivy League play with a win next Saturday at Brown.

But entering Saturday’s Senior Day game vs. Columbia at Johnson Field, the senior class -- goalkeeper Katie Bolling (Ann Arbor, Mich.), forward Erica Cullum (Morristown, N.J.), forward Johna Paolino (East Greenwich, R.I.) and back Marissa Waldemore (New Vernon, N.J.) -- has helped put the team in a position to match or exceed some of the most significant records in school history.

The Stags had hung tough against the Bulldogs all game long, and Marit Westenberg's shot on the only Fairfield penalty corner of the game was behind the Yale goalkeeper and on its way in to knot the game 2-2 -- until freshman midfielder/back Georgia Holland made the play of the game. Holland lunged forward and got to the ball in the air just before it crossed, winding up in the cage herself but keeping the ball out. The game-saving effort proved vital in Yale's 2-1 win.

Still within a game of first place, Yale hosts Penn in a crucial Ivy League contest Saturday at Noon at Johnson Field. The Bulldogs are then right back on the road Sunday, but this time it's a short trip down I-95 to play at Fairfield Sunday at 1 p.m. Sat, 23 Oct 2010 04:00:00 GMT http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-fieldh/2010-11/releases/20101022bon55h 2010-10-23T04:00:00Z http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-fieldh/2010-11/releases/20101023weok6t After five straight games on the road, the Yale field hockey team was anxious to get back to Johnson Field and set the tone early in an Ivy League showdown with Penn Saturday afternoon. The Bulldogs did so in emphatic fashion, scoring six times in the first half. By the end of the day three different players had scored two goals, and nine different players had points, for a 10-0 win over Penn. Junior midfielder/back Taylor Sankovich led the way with two goals and two assists.

Two players who were key parts of the dominant defensive effort that saw the Bulldogs allow only one goal in 140 minutes were honored: junior back Erin Carter (Perkiomenville, Pa.) was named Player of the Week and freshman midfielder/back Georgia Holland (Stony Brook, N.Y.) was named Rookie of the Week.

The Bulldogs outshot the Crusaders 7-1 in the first half, taking a 1-0 lead on a goal by sophomore forward/midfielder Mary Beth Barham. Junior back Erin Carter added another goal in the second half, and senior goalkeeper Katie Bolling combined with sophomore goalkeeper Ona McConnell for the 2-0 shutout.

So it was fitting that, on a day where the Bulldogs became just the fourth team this season to hold Dartmouth to less than two goals, one of Yale's top backs provided the necessary offense for the win. Junior Erin Carter's two penalty corner goals turned an early 1-0 Dartmouth lead into a 2-1 Yale lead, and senior goalkeeper Katie Bolling kept the Big Green at bay with four saves. Senior forward Johna Paolino put the game out of reach with a goal midway through the second half.

The Bulldogs had a 1-0 lead on a first-half goal by freshman forward Erica Borgo, but the Eagles' Janna Anctil scored twice in less than a minute early in the second half to reverse that lead. Borgo tied it again with 15 minutes to play, but Anctil finished off her hat trick seven and a half minutes later to lift her team to the 3-2 win.

In between those two spurts, Yale managed to hang with the No. 5 team in the country. Junior back Erin Carter scored the only goal by either team in a stretch of more than 30 minutes of playing time, but it was not enough for Yale to avoid a 7-1 loss.

It will be a particularly tough task for the Bulldog offense, with both opponents featuring goalies ranked in the top 10 in the country in goals-against average. Yale garnered a vote in the NFHCA poll released Tuesday, the second straight week the Bulldogs have been among the teams receiving votes.
