HENNIKER, N.H. — The Regis College field hockey team traveled north on Saturday afternoon for a Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) matchup against New England College. The Pilgrims used a dominant second quarter, scoring four goals, to propel themselves to a 6-0 victory over the Pride.
How it Happened

Regis had a chance to get on the board in the 56th minute when Gabrielle Tolman (Rockland, Maine) fired a shot on goal, but NEC goalkeeper Amy Philbin made the save to preserve the shutout. The Pilgrims added a final goal in the closing minute to seal the 6-0 win on their home turf.
