NORFOLK, Va. -- The Old Dominion field hockey team won its fourth consecutive game to open the 2018 season on Friday, shutting out No. 17 James Madison, 3-0, at the L.R. Hill Sports Complex.
Ilse Westera, Kristen Vick and Tori Harwood all scored goals for Old Dominion (4-0), who is now 4-0 for the first time since 2011.
"I'm thrilled with the way we are playing together," said head coach Andrew Griffiths. "We played with toughness and we played with confidence."
Despite dominating possession and attacking the James Madison (1-3) goal for majority of the first half, it was a defensive play that sparked ODU's momentum.
