Field Hockey Wins Two

By Ann McGuire "If we can play our game, we can beat anybody"-that was the optimistic prediction of Head Coach Peel Hawthorne for the 1985 Women's Field Hockey Team. They are already off to a strong start, having won their first two games against Wesleyan and Mt. Holyoke. This is the first season where the team has simultaneously had a strong offense as well as a strong defense, according to Hawthorne. Leading the Camels will be co-captains Caroline Twomey and Judy Houde, in an effort to better last years record of 6-5-1. Thestickwomen opened their season last Saturday with a (2-D) victory over Wesleyan. Goals were scored by last years leading scorer Sue Lardau, and by freshman Sarah Lingeman. Things were a little tougher last Tuesday against a fast and Women's Soccer Off to a Disappointing Start skillful team from Mt. Holyoke, but the Camels took the win (2-1).
