DAVIDSON — Sarah Grace Clifton's goal with 9:32 remaining lifted the Davidson field hockey team past Bellarmine 2-1 Sunday afternoon at Belk Turf Field.
With the win, the Wildcats improved to 4-4, while Bellarmine fell to 2-6.
"Today was fun," said Davidson coach Zoe Almquist. "We talked a lot about playing a complete game, start to finish. And I really think the group weathered all the challenges that came our way today. It was a great way to respond after a long road trip Thursday and Friday. It was also a great team effort with every person really buying in and playing the team role that we needed to have them play."
Clifton's first goal of the season came off an Eva van der Kooi assist from the left side and found the cage 4:18 after Bellarmine's Sammie Callaghan evened the score early in the fourth quarter.
Davidson led 1-0 at the half thanks to van der Kooi's first college goal, off a Celie Constantine assist, 3:13 into the second quarter.
The Wildcats held a 16-6 shots advantage, including four by Macy Curtis and three by Sib Naaktgeboren.
As part of their Pink Game, the Wildcats wore new pink uniforms and recognized former player Kate Singletary '19 pregame.
Up Next
The Wildcats will host Atlantic 10 foe VCU on Friday, Oct. 4.
