Michigan field hockey holds MSU without a shot in 2-0 win and more Friday results

By AnnArbor.com Staff

The Michigan field hockey team scored two second-half goals and did not allow host Michigan State to take a single shot in a 2-0 win Friday in East Lansing.

The No. 7-ranked Wolverines got both of their goals from freshmen. Aline Fobe scored the game-winner in the 41st minute and Emy Guttman, a Pioneer High School graduate, added an insurance goal in the 61st minute.

Michigan had 10 shots in each half to hold a 20-0 advantage. It’s the second time this season the Wolverines (12-3, 4-1 Big Ten) have held an opponent without a shot this season. They also blanked Ball State on Sept. 17.

The win gives Michigan a half-game lead over Penn State in the Big Ten standings. They can clinch at least a share of the conference title when they host Indiana next Friday in their final Big Ten regular season game of the season.

I think the Michigan Fight Song is due for an update: "At least we still have Field Hockey."
