KEUKA PARK, N.Y. – Keuka used four third-period goals to break open Saturday afternoon's Empire 8 Conference opener vs. Russell Sage College. The outburst turned a 3-0 RSC deficit into an 8-1 setback.

Senior forward Alyssa Fitzgerald (Queensbury, NY/Queensbury) scored the lone goal for the Gators, while sophomore midfielder/goalkeeper Anna Church (Ludlow, VT/Green Mountain Union) and freshman defender/goalkeeper Jaia Caron (Bellows Falls, VT/Bellows Falls Union) combined to make 14 saves.

Keuka (1-5/1-0 E8), which outshot RSC 33-1, had three different players net two goals in the home victory. Midfielder Makayla Mills recorded a game-high five points on a goal and four assists.

The Gators (0-3/0-1 E8) are back in action on Wednesday night at FDU-Florham. The non-conference action is set to begin at 6:00 pm.
