Buffalo State Races Past Potsdam

BUFFALO, NY-Buffalo State (9-4/5-1) jumped all over visiting Potsdam (5-9/1-5) early and cruised to a 17-8 win in a SUNYAC game this afternoon at Coyer Field, on a day when sophomore Karen Shaddock (Corning/Corning East) eclipsed another milestone.

Brittany Nagowski (Lancaster/Lancaster) added a goal and an assist, Jen Tierney (Massapequa/Massapequa) and Caitlin Butler (E. Amherst/Williamsville North) also scored, and Kendyl Clarkson (Painted Post/Corning West) served up five assists.

The Bengals raced out to a 5-0 lead and led by as many as 11 in the second half en route to the victory. The Bengals controlled the ground game with a 20-14 edge in ground balls, and outshot the Bears, 27-24. Ashley O'Brien (Honeoye Falls/Honeoye Falls-Lima) allowed four goals and had six saves in 45 minutes of work for the win between the pipes.
