CHARLOTTE, N.C.- Led by two goals from sophomore Tori Cisney, the Ohio field hockey team (2-1) began its two-game road trip with a thrilling, 3-2, last-second victory over Queens (1-2) Friday night (Sept. 4).

The Bobcats scored three unanswered goals after Queens went up 2-0 early in the second quarter to secure the win.

Overall, Ohio scored three goals on 12 shots with nine on goal, while Queens scored two goals on six shots with three on goal.

Individually, Ohio was led by Cisney (Cleona, Pa.) with two goals, while junior Deborah James (Hertfordshire, England) added her second goal of the season. Sophomore Rowan Casey (Columbus, Ohio) and junior Marie De Grande (Groot-Bijgaarden, Belgium) both added assists for the Bobcats.

In goal, junior Molly Schreiner (State College, Pa.) got the start in goal, allowing two goals and making one save in 60 minutes of action.

The Bobcats started the game aggressively on offense, earning the first six penalty corners of the game to set the tone early. Despite the pressure from Ohio, it was Queens that got on the board first after its first penalty corner of the game.

Ohio had two more penalty corners before the end of the first period, but it could not capitalize, sending the game to the second period with Queens up 1-0.

The Royals started that second period hot as well, scoring just after the first minute of the quarter to take a 2-0 lead.

The Bobcats responded quickly as the aggression on offense paid off less than a minute later, with their first goal of the game coming from Cisney.

After the game reached a bit of a standstill in the second quarter, Ohio again found the back of the net, scoring following a penalty corner to tie the game. That crucial goal came off the stick of James, who scored her second goal of the season, with assists coming from De Grande and Casey.

Following the goal from James, the game headed into halftime tied at 2-2, and third period was a defensive struggle with just one penalty corner going to Queens in the entirety of the quarter.

The Royals opened the fourth quarter with two penalty corners, but they failed to find the back of the net and capitalize.

Queens was not able to get a shot off for the rest of the game, however Ohio wasn't able to get much going down the stretch. That was until Cisney delivered in the clutch with her second goal of the game with under two minutes to go, securing the 3-2 victory.

Ohio is back in action on Sunday, Sept. 6 when the Bobcats head to Winston-Salem, N.C. to take on No. 7 Wake Forest. First touch is set for Noon ET and can be seen on ACCNX.
