Boxscore

NORTH ANDOVER, MA – Gabrielle Gramprey (Brockton, MA) continued her excellent week, notching a hat trick in Merrimack’s 5-1 win over Pace University Saturday afternoon.

Gramprey scored six straight goals for Merrimack, including five this week in two Warrior home wins.

Merrimack dominated the first half outshooting the Setters 13-1. Gramprey notched her fifth of the season as Jackie Vickers (Norwell, MA) intercepted the incoming goal kick, dished it to Gramprey, who fired it past the goaltender to give the Warriors the lead.

She then scored twice in a four minute span, breaking the game open early in the second half, beating Pace backup goaltender Monique Morey for her sixth and seventh of the year.

Freshman Kara Hennigan (Pawtucket, RI) added a breakaway tally in the 84th minute, her third of the year. Alyssa Wollman (Northford, CT) then notched her first career marker via a header with time winding down.

Dania D’Alessandro added a late goal to ruin the Warriors’ shutout.

Merrimack out shot the Setters 26-5.

The Warriors (4-1-2, 2-1-1 NE-10) visit New Haven Tuesday (4 p.m.).
