TEANECK, N.J.- The FDU Knights (2-10, 1-5) were defeated by the Saint Francis U Red Flash (4-5, 3-1) by a score of 13-8 in Teaneck on Saturday afternoon.
 
Brielle McInaw continued her scoring tear for FDU. She totaled her third-consecutive hat-trick and extended her goal streak to eight games. McInaw has scored 17 goals in that span and has a team-leading 20 on the season. Two of those goals were assisted by Riley Eaton who also posted two goals for a four-point day. Eaton leads the Knights with 29 points.
 
Nora Codianni, Lane Mintchwarner, and Kendal Hippert all caused two turnovers each in the game. As a team, FDU caused 10 turnovers and were the benefactors of 15 Red Flash turnovers overall. The Knights turned it over 15 times themselves.
 
Codianni helped the Knights win 11 of 24 draw controls, claiming six for herself. This marked a season-best for the freshman in this department.
 
A low-scoring first half saw the Red Flash get out to 5-1 lead. A timely goal from Eaton pulled FDU within three heading into the third period.
 
Lindsey Felician struck for her ninth goal of the season not even three minutes into the second half and brought the Red Flash lead down to 5-3. However, this is as close as the Knights would get as they surrendered four of the next five goals and fell behind by five.
 
The Knights continued to fight in the fourth period ripping off a 4-1 run sparked by two of McInaw's goals. This brought the game to 10-8. However, Saint Francis scored the last three and won it 13-10.
 
FDU was outshot 32-25 in the loss. Skylar Goodman made 10 saves on 20 shots on goal.
