\n\tMaya Metz<\/a> kicked off the scoring less than five minutes into the contest, capitalizing off the feed from Logan Pilon<\/a> to give the Jaspers an early edge.
\n\tFollowing a tying goal from the Pioneers, Ella Brunette<\/a> and Meghan Wendler<\/a> scored just 33 seconds apart in the latter half of the opening quarter, taking a 3-1 lead after the first 15 minutes of action.\u00a0
\n\tReady for the second, Sacred Heart ripped off four consecutive goals by the midway point of the frame, going up two themselves.\u00a0
\n\tPilon chipped in with a score of her own late, but the visitors stood tall at 7-4 headed into the locker rooms.
\n\tLauren Maher<\/a> found Brunette in stride shortly into the second half, trimming the margin down to two.\u00a0
\n\tIt was then Brunette’s turn to hand the ball off to Julia Kerr<\/a>, as she struck for the first time in the afternoon to start the final 15 minutes down only one goal.\u00a0
\n\tMetz secured her second of the day halfway into the final quarter, with the scoreboard now showing 8-7 in favor of the road team.\u00a0
\n\tAfter yet another insurance goal from the Pioneers, Brunette’s third goal of the day was not enough to lift the Jaspers over the edge, ending the game by the slimmest of margins at 9-8.\u00a0
<\/p>\n
\n\tFreshman midfielder Ella Brunette<\/a> tallied her seventh game with three or more goals, which includes her last three played. The Brighton, N.Y. native also notched the\u00a0first assist of her collegiate career.\u00a0
\n\tSenior attacker Maya Metz<\/a> was the lone other Jasper to have a multi-goal performance, now sitting in third place amongst her teammates in goals scored (14).\u00a0
\n\tFreshman attacker Logan Pilon<\/a> set a new career-high with three assists this afternoon, moving into the team lead in that category (eight).\u00a0
\n\tJunior defender Meghan Dwan<\/a> caused the most turnovers for Manhattan with two.
\n\tRedshirt Junior goalkeeper Sophie Pasnak<\/a> logged nine saves through a full 60 minutes.\u00a0
