WILKES-BARRE, Pa. --- The Moravian College women's field hockey team dropped its non-conference match with King's College (Pa.) Wednesday afternoon by a final score of 5-2.
The Greyhounds were able to find the back of the cage once in each half.

Moravian would trail the Monarchs at the end of the first period, 2-1, as the Hounds scored on their only shot of the opening 35 minutes.
The second half went back-and-forth but unfortunately the Monarchs found the back of the net three more times before the end of the game. The Hounds were able to find another goal before the contest was over to try to get back in it.

The goal was the seventh of the fall for Tiwold.
