Box Score

ALBANY, N.Y. -- Belen Martinez, Sara Sanders and Kelly Kantarian each scored a goal as the Cornell field hockey team evened its record with a 3-0 victory over Siena on Sunday. Martinez's goal in the seventh minute would prove to be the game-winner as Cornell improved to 1-1 on the year, while Siena falls to 0-3 on the season.

Cornell dominated the score sheet in the contest, holding a 19-0 margin in penalty corners and a 30-2 advantage in shots. A day after being called on to make 19 saves in a 1-0 loss at No. 19 Albany, goalkeeper Melanie Jue had a much quieter game on Sunday, as she did not need to make a save for her first career shutout.

After Martinez put the Big Red on top to stay in the seventh minute, Kantarian added an insurance tally five minutes later, deflecting in a shot off a penalty corner. The score would stay 2-0 through the first 35 minutes before Sanders scored her first goal of the season in the 41st minute to close out the scoring.

Cornell returns to action on Friday, traveling to Lock Haven for a 4 p.m. non-league contest. The Big Red will then continue on to Lewisburg, Pa., for a matchup against Bucknell on Saturday.
