Leader of the pack

While the Chippewas’ season may not be off to the start the team had originally hoped for, certain members of the women’s field hockey team are standing out and leading the way towards what they hope will be a brighter second half.

If you have had a chance to check out the stats for the previous games this season, you will notice that the team has a number of members consistently placing on top of the various categories. However, there is one reoccurring name, which is standing out by leading more categories than just one – Kaysie Gregory (#11). The senior midfielder from Rome, New York currently leads the team in four of the five categories, and serves as runner-up for the additional one.

Here is an update on how Gregory's season has continued moving forward since our "Player to Watch!!" feature. As of October 11, she leads the team in number of points (16), number of goals (7), number of shots (24) and number of shots on goal (17). In addition, she is the runner-up, behind senior Kianne Hinkle, for the number of assists (2).

If Gregory continues down this track for the remainder of the season it is very likely that she will beat her stats from the 2014-2015 season. Last season, she tied for the number of team points (19), finished second in goals (6) and led the team in assists (7).
