DUDLEY, Mass. – Graduate student Dana Edwards and junior Erin Anthony each scored second-half goals to lift the Nichols College field hockey program to a 2-0 win over Anna Maria College Wednesday evening in non-conference action at Vendetti Field.

The win lifts the Bison to 3-1 on the season for the third consecutive season and extends their winning streak against the AMCats (0-3) to three. In the process, NC improved to 22-17-1 all-time against their neighbors from Paxton.

The Bison outshot the AMCats 15-4 and broke the scoreless tie midway through the third when Anthony collected a rebound off a shot from Edwards. Less than four minutes later, freshman Emily LeBlanc fed Edwards for a one-time shot that found its way inside the left post. The point was the first of LeBlanc's career.

Freshman goalie Sophia Venable recorded two saves to earn her third win of the season.
