How It Happened
Lebanon Valley dropped Drew 2-1 to pick up the team's first victory of the season on day one of the annual Drew Fall Festival in Madison, N.J. on Friday afternoon.

Maddie Fox netted the eventual game-winner with 21:46 left to play off a Brittany Fleisher assist while goalkeepers Kendra Moll and Victoria ByDeLey combined to make four saves on the day.

The Flying Dutchmen (1-1) struck quickly when Kristen Garman took the game's first penalty corner and connected with Fleisher who put home the team's first goal of 2015 just 1:03 into the contest.

LVC held off the Rangers first four penalty corners of the first half but couldn't stop the fifth as Madi Sheetz found the back of the net off moments after putting the ball in play. Kate Todero assisted on the score with just 33 seconds remaining in the first half.

After two Fleisher attempts were stopped by Drew goalkeeper Ryann Callaghan early in the second half, Fox finally broke through for the Dutchmen.

Notable Performance
Brittany Fleisher – The junior had a hand in both of LVC's goals on the day, tallying the Dutchmen's first score of the year and the game's first marker just moments after the opening whistle and finding Maddie Fox for the game-winner with 21 minutes left to play.

Inside the Numbers
- LVC goalkeeper Kendra Moll's pair of saves came within the final eight minutes of the game. She turned away Drew's Michelle Fallon with 7:40 remaining and Kirby Clark with 23 seconds left to play.
- Drew GK Ryan Callaghan had her work cut out for her as she faced 11 shots on goal, stopping eight and getting help from her defense on a ninth.
- Lebanon Valley recorded 19 totals shots and 11 SOG compared to just six shots and five SOG for the Rangers. Brittany Fleisher (6 shots, 4 SOG) led the way for the Dutchmen while Madi Sheetz (2 shots, 2 SOG) was tops for Drew.
- LVC held an 11-6 advantage in penalty corners.
- The Dutchmen were awarded a pair of penalty strokes but neither Kristen Garman nor Rachel Youngs could push their shots past Callaghan.
