Red Dragons Take Down Highlanders

CORTLAND, NY – The Cortland State Red Dragons handed the Houghton Highlanders their second straight defeat on Tuesday afternoon by a 3-0 margin.
 
The Red Dragons scored their first goal with less than five minutes remaining in the first half when Jessica Walsh found Anna Branch on the left side for a one-time sweep into the goal.
 
Houghton had a golden opportunity to take the lead in the 20th minute when Grace Lee cracked a shot toward the back of the cage.  Cortland goalie Kailynne Reinoehl made a diving save, however, to keep the Highlanders off the board.
 
The Red Dragons added their second goal in the 50th minute then tacked on one more for good measure in the final minute.
