Oxford 2, Delhi 1
DELHI – Oxford regrouped after Delhi’s tying goal as Danielle Murphy scored unassisted with six minutes left in regulation to give the Blackhawks their third win this season.
Vanessa Pierson tallied off a Marlena Frank pass giving Oxford (3-3) a 1-0 halftime advantage. Lauren Barkalow knotted the contest for Delhi midway through the second half.
“The conditions were not conducive to field hockey, so we had to scrap it out,” said Oxford coach Missy Chrystie. “I give my girls credit to come back after Delhi tied the game. The rain slowed the game down and we weren’t able to rely on big hits. It was a sloppy game.”
