Brookville, NY - Four different Pioneers scored as the LIU Post field hockey team captured its second-straight NE 10 Championship title with a 4-1 victory over Assumption College at Bethpage Federal Credit Union Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

With the win, the Pioneers improve to 18-3 and awaits word on a potential at-large bid to the NCAA Regional Tournament.
 
Sammy Bell opened the scoring in the second minute when she finished off a cross from Emilia Herran and the Pioneers later doubled the lead two minutes later when Kaycee Zelkovsky converted on a penalty stroke.
 
Arantxa Rosainz Caloca was the third Pioneer to score in the 27th minute when Julie Gysels sent Kate Melvin's set piece to Caloca, who rifled it and found the back of the cage.
 
The Greyhounds cut the deficit to two (3-1) on the other side of the break when Isable Primack bagged home a goal in the 51st minute, but Alyssa LoPresti's goal nine minutes later restored LIU Post's three-goal lead and secured the NE-10 Championship for the Pioneers.
 
LIU Post now awaits word on a potential at-large bid to the NCAA Division II Championship. The selection show will be aired Monday (Nov. 6) at 3 p.m. on NCAA.com. You can view it by clicking here.
