Seifert Scores Career First as AEC Game Winner Versus Valiants

Gwynedd Valley, Pa. - (10/30/2024) - In a frantic 37th minute, Gwynedd Mercy University (4-13, 2-2) answered a game-tying goal (1-1, 36:08) from Manhattanville University (4-11, 1-3) with a game-winning goal (2-1, 36:28) from freshman midfielder Alyssa Seifert (Philadelphia, Pa.) as the Griffins ended their 2024 regular season on a high note and secured the #3 seed in the upcoming 2024 Atlantic East Conference (AEC) Field Hockey Championship Tournament with this evening's 2-1 victory over the Valiants. Junior midfielder Mackenzie Reed (Philadelphia, Pa.) scored the Red and Gold's initial tally (1-0, 17:36) and totaled a team-high 11 shots, while freshman goalkeeper Kelly Weaver (Flemington, N.J.) earned her first collegiate win (1-8) with a single save.

Griffin Highlights
  • Gwynedd Mercy University kept the pressure on Manhattanville University with a 22-5 shot advantage and a 13-4 edge in penalty corners.
  • The Griffins persistence paid off early in the second quarter, when senior forward Ashley Berry (Philadelphia, Pa.) carried the ball toward the cage and tapped it to Reed for the finisher; 1-0 (17:36).
  • Reed's aggressive play was complimented by four shots from sophomore midfielder Lillie Uttenreither (Bel Air, Md.) as well as three from senior defender Laura Filchner (Bath, Pa.).
As the #3 seed in the 2024 AEC Field Hockey Championship Tournament, the Griffins will travel to #2 Immaculata University for a 3:30 p.mm semifinal contest.
