Below is the Field Hockey Championship rewind.


Bolstered by a sixth regular-season championship within the past seven years, top-seeded Saint Joseph's clinched a second consecutuve Atlantic 10 Field Hockey title earlier this past November, dispatching No. 2 Massachusetts behind a 3-0 shutout in the championship final on Saturday, Nov. 5 at Gladchuk Field in Amherst, Mass. The Hawks initially edged out fourth-seeded VCU in the semifinals via a 2-1 effort before squaring off against the host Minutewomen in the title contest.

In the NCAA Tournament, No. 9 Saint Joseph's composed a unprecedented victory over No. 10 Wake Forest, knocking off the Demon Deacons via a 3-1 margin in the opening round in the program's first-ever postseason victory. The Hawks matched up against No. 1 overall North Carolina in the quarterfinals, falling to the Tar Heels by a final 5-2 margin.
