PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. - SUNY Geneseo junior midfielder Emily Green had four shots, including three on goal, but it was host Plattsburgh coming away with the 2-0 victory in State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) action, Friday afternoon.

Play went back and fourth in the first half but neither team was able to get on the scoreboard as the Cardinals entered halftime with a 6-5 edge in shots.

Geneseo had a scoring opportunity in the 53rd minute but senior midfielder Marissa Benson's header off a corner kick by junior back Patricia Galan was saved by Plattsburgh keeper Nichole Gibson.

In the 78th minute, Cardinals' sophomore forward Sarah Haight broke the scoreless tie with a goal into the left corner after taking a pass through the middle of the box from junior midfielder Ashlie Guinness.

The hosts tallied another goal in the 82nd minute when senior forward Devin McMahon beat first-year keeper Juliana Panepento on a low score off an assist from Anissa Hartmann.

Plattsburgh (11-5-1, 5-3 SUNYAC) outshot Geneseo, 14-8, as Panepento made six saves in her first collegiate start.

The Knights (10-4-1, 5-3 SUNYAC) play their final regular-season match tomorrow at Potsdam at 1 p.m. The team has clinched a spot in the conference tournament and can be ranked no lower than the fourth seed.
