While scoring six shutouts during its first seven games, the Southern Regional field hockey team outscored its opponents, 36-1. On Sept. 20, the Rams not only allowed twice as many goals as they had for the season to that point, they also tasted defeat for the first time this season, dropping a tight, 2-1 contest to perennial conference power Shore Regional.

Goaltender Maddie Leyh made 13 saves against the Blue Devils, but second-half goals by Lily Santi and Maggie Lamb were enough.
