Strubbe's First Half Goal Not Enough as Bobcats Fall to Yale

By: QU Athletic Communications

HAMDEN, Conn. – Bianka Strubbe (Wroclaw, Poland) scored her team-leading sixth goal of the season Sunday afternoon but the Quinnipiac field hockey team fell to the Yale Bulldogs, 2-1, in non-conference play.

The Bobcats took a 1-0 lead into halftime thanks to Strubbe's goal on a penalty corner as time expired in the half but the Bobcats could not hold onto the lead as Yale turned up the pressure in the second half and put home to goals.

In addition to Sunday's game, Quinnipiac also recognized the six members of its Class of 2020 with the annual senior day game.
