\nSeason Update<\/p>\n
\n\tThe 18th-ranked Continentals (11-2-3 overall), who are seeded third for the championship, are unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. They have outscored opponents 14-4 during that stretch.
\n\tConn. College (8-7-1) had earned the sixth seed for the championship by defeating Bowdoin College and Wesleyan University in its final two matches of the regular season.
<\/p>\n
\n\tHamilton dominated the action from the opening kickoff, taking a dozen shots in the first 15 minutes.
\n\tHaley Cramer<\/a> ’28 gave the Continentals the only goal they needed in the 16th minute. Cramer took one touch with her left foot after receiving a pass from Flood, turned and hammered a left-footed shot into the top-left corner of the goal from about 20 yards out.
\n\tAly Fernandes<\/a> ’30, who had come on in the 30th minute, provided some insurance just two minutes into the second half. Flood played a through up the middle of the field and into the 18-yard box. The Camels’ goalkeeper came off her line to cut off the pass but Fernandes reached the ball first. Fernandes tapped the ball once through the keeper’s outstretched hands and scored from about six yards out into the empty goal.
\n\tAbby Douglass<\/a> ’27 completed the scoring in the 73rd minute. The Conn. College keeper tried to punch a corner kick by Kate Giglio<\/a> ’28 out of the box but the ball went right to Flood, who headed it to her left. Douglass struck the shot out of midair with her right foot, past two defenders and under the crossbar from the edge of the six-yard box.
\n\tHamilton had other scoring chances that barely missed the mark. Isabel Harvey<\/a> ’28 rang a shot off the crossbar in the sixth minute and a corner kick by Giglio from the left side glanced off the right post in the 44th minute.
<\/p>\n
\n\tFlood has five assists in the last two matches and six on the year. The last three-assist match for the Continentals was by Olivia Rodrigues ’21 against SUNY Morrisville on Oct. 16, 2018.
\n\tCramer recorded a point for the fourth straight match. She has scored five goals in each of her three seasons at Hamilton. Cramer is second on the team with 17 points.
\n\tDouglass, who is a defender for the Continentals, notched her first goal this season and the second of her career.
\n\tFernandes, who exploded for three goals in a 5-0 victory against Utica University on October 25, is tied for second on the team with five.
\n\tCorah Boller<\/a> ’29 posted her second clean sheet in nine starts this season. Boller made a fantastic kick save on a header shot from close range in the 27th minute and added another stop in the 41st minute.
\n\tMaia Kafer turned away 10 shots for the Camels.
\n\tHamilton held a 30-7 shot advantage and earned eight corner kicks to Conn. College’s three.
\n\tThe Continentals are 4-0-1 in their last five home matches against the Camels.
\n\tHamilton advanced to the NESCAC semifinals for the third time (2017, 2021).
\n\tSaturday’s matchup was the first between the Continentals and Conn. College in the conference championship.

\nHamilton takes on Tufts University (12-0-3) in a semifinal at Williams College at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 7. No. 2 seed Tufts defeated Wesleyan University 4-2 in another quarterfinal on Saturday.
