PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Dartmouth field hockey team dropped a 3-1 Ivy League contest at Brown's Goldberger Field Saturday afternoon.
Â
Junior
Tatum Schultz scored her second of the season and in as many games for the Big Green (3-6, 0-2), while Dani van Rootselaar notched a pair of goals in the win for the Bears (3-6, 1-1).
Â
"Brown came out hungry today, and earned that win," head coach
Amy Fowler said. "We had some positive take aways, but it's a reality check that we have to come out and execute. On top of that, we must create more threatening challenges on attack and we absolutely need to finish.Â
Â
"We will need to regroup and get ready for a very solid Providence team tomorrow," Fowler added.
Â
A 0-0 game at the half, Brown scored the lone tally of the third quarter off the stick of Gina Openshaw to take the one-goal lead. van Rootselaar's first of the day came two minutes into the fourth and followed with the second just three minutes and 19 seconds later to seal the win.
Â
Between those two fourth-quarter scores for the home was Schultz's goal, a deflection of a
Katie Spanos shot on a corner play, redirecting the ball into the top of the net.
Â
Sophomore
Isabella Santucci made four saves in the game, while Brown goalkeeper Calista Manuzza made three.

Dartmouth stays in Providence to play the Friars at 1 p.m. on Sunday across town.
