Reading, Pa. – Juniata College field hockey ended the 2011 season with a loss in the ECAC Division III Mid-Atlantic Tournament Semifinal match against Alvernia College, 2-0.
Juniata (11-9) couldn't produce enough offense to take down the Crusaders of Alvernia University, after being outshot 17-8. Sophomore Emma Dahmus (Hummelstown, Pa./Lower Dauphin) led the Eagle attack with four shots, two on goal; and seniors Shauna Deschenes (Duncannon, Pa./Susquenita), Kim Amrod (Ridgefield, Conn./Ridgefield), Molly Snyder (Boalsburg, Pa./State College Area) and Kara Buda (Franklin, N.J./Wallkill Valley) each took one shot apiece in an attempt to score.
Junior goalkeeper Janelle Howard (Mechanicsburg, Pa./Cumberland Valley) recorded seven saves in 70 minutes of action, but couldn't keep the Crusaders at bay, allowing one goal each half.
