Dorothy once uttered, “There’s no place like home. There’s no place like home. There’s no place like home.”
While Dorothy was saved by wishing for home, the field hockey team might just wish it could go any place else but home after dropping its fifth-straight home contest in a 1-0 loss to Bucknell last night. It was the team’s fourth-straight loss overall.
The Bison came into the game with a 6-7 overall record and was able to improve to .500 on the season after defeating the Red (6-6, 3-2 Ivy).
The Red held the statistical advantage over the Bison in shots, saves and time of possession, but was not able to hold the advantage in the most important category — goals.
Cornell outshot Bucknell 12-8 during the game and held the 3-2 margin in saves.
