NEWBURGH, N.Y. – In the seventh minute of play, sophomore Kelly Candelet (Mystic, Conn.) netted a goal to give the Knights a 1-0 lead, a lead they would keep and build upon for the rest of the game. The win improved their overall record to 10-9 and their Skyline conference mark to 6-4, while Maritime fell to 3-16 overall and 2-8 in Skyline play.

The next two goals came back-to-back in the thirteenth and fourteenth minutes of play. The first was a rebound shot by junior Colleen Capadora (Goshen, N.Y.) following a cross from freshman Allie Kleine (Vernon, N.J.) that bounced off the goalkeeper. The next came from junior Erin McKeon (Watertown, Conn.) as she stole the ball outside the box and shot a rocket to the far post.

In the second half, junior Colleen Ryan (Point Lookout, N.Y.) scored the fourth goal of the night as she took a long shot from outside the box that soared right over the head of the goalkeeper. The fifth and last goal came from freshman Tara McDermott (Tewksbury, N.J.) on a penalty kick in the sixty-eighth minute.

Maritime goal keeper Andria Thornton (Saugerties, N.Y.) had eighteen saves in the game while the Knights recorded an impressive thirty-nine shots.

As this game concluded the regular season for the Knights, they'll advance to a Skyline Tournament quarterfinal game at SUNY College at Old Westbury on Saturday. The time of the game is to be announced.
