10/1/2023 2:56:00 PM | Field Hockey
DAVIDSON — Wake Forest withstood an early barrage of Davidson threats, settled in and earned a 2-0 win in field hockey at Belk Turf Field Sunday afternoon.
The Wildcats (4-8 overall) put five shots-on-goal in the first quarter, but keeper Ellie Todd saved all of them for the Demon Deacons (4-5).
Brooke McCusker put Wake on the board, scoring after a Deacons penalty corner, with 4:34 left in the first half. Then Wake scored 2:13 into the second half when Nat Friedman took a long Faye Janse pass in from the left and finished.
Wake outshot Davidson 14-4 after the opening quarter to finish with a 14-9 advantage, though Davidson had an 8-6 edge in shots-on-goal. The Deacons finished with 11 corners to Davidson's five.
Matilda Collins led all players with four shots-on-goal, while Macy Curtis, Liv Goeke, Ava Mickel and Sib Naaktgeboren had one apiece.
Keeper Genna Barge, making her first start of the year, finished with four saves.
Up Next
The Wildcats will host non-conference foe Ball State next Friday.
