BABSON PARK, Mass. —Graduate student Andrea Marguerite (Hopkinton, Mass.) scored a pair of goals and senior Ellie Powers (Bethlehem, Pa.) scored her first goal of the season on a penalty stroke as No. 7 Babson College defeated the University of New England, 5-1, in non-conference field hockey action Tuesday evening at MacDowell Field.

With its 10th straight victory, the Beavers improved to 15-3 overall while UNE dropped its third in a row and fell to 7-11.

Senior Berit Sharrow (Denver, Colo.) and junior Caroline DiGiovanni (Harwich, Mass.) also scored for the Beavers and junior Alex Michelotti (Englewood, Colo.) picked up an assist. Senior Bayla Furmanek (State College, Pa.) and junior Josie Ashton (Chatham, N.J.) each made one save in goal in the win.

Junior Makena Valentine (Hatfield, Mass.) potted a fourth-quarter goal for the Nor'easters with an assist from classmate Shelly Tremblay (Barre, Mass.). Senior Dawn DeWeese-Moss (Pittsfield, Maine) made seven goalie saves and junior Micaela Jacobs (Waterboro, Maine) recorded a defensive save in the setback.

Babson burst out of the gates with two goals on penalty corners in the first six minutes. Marguerite poked in the ball out of a scrum in front for her first of the night just 3:15 into the contest and Barrow fired a shot from the right side through the pads of DeWeese-Moss to make it 2-0 less than six minutes in.

The Beavers tacked on one more goal before the end of the opening stanza when UNE committed a foul near the Babson goal. Powers stepped up and scored on the penalty stroke with a shot to the lower right corner as the Green and White took a 3-0 lead into the second quarter.

DiGiovanni extended the Beaver lead early in the second quarter after stealing a pass, dribbling around two defenders and ripping a backhanded shot from just inside the circle for her team-leading 13th goal of the season with 13 minutes remaining in the quarter.

The score remained 4-0 until the closing seconds of the third quarter, when Michelotti tapped a loose ball to Marguerite on the doorstep and she finished her second goal of the game and eighth of the season to make it 5-0 after three quarters.

The visitors got on the scoreboard on a penalty corner in the 51st minute. Trembley sent a pass across the circle to Valentine on the left, and she unloaded a shot that went off Furmanek's pads and into the goal with 9:48 remaining.

Babson finished with a 23-6 margin in shots, including 13-3 in shots on goal, and the Beavers doubled up the Nor'easters in penalty corners, 10-5.

Both teams wrap up their regular season on Saturday as Babson hosts Mount Holyoke in a NEWMAC matchup and UNE returns home to welcome Gordon in a College of New England contest at 12 p.m.
