NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Brown field hockey team was defeated by Yale, 4-0, in its final game of the season at Johnson Field on Saturday afternoon. Sophomore Hannah Leckey (Madison, Conn.) recorded a defensive save in the contest, which moved her into a tie for third all-time at Brown in defensive saves for a season.
Yale (9-8, 2-5 Ivy League) opened the contest with some offensive pressure and had a scoring chance in the 10th minute on a breakaway but junior Katie Hammaker (Ephrata, Pa.) came out to make a sliding save to keep the game scoreless.

Middough tacked on two more for Yale in the second stanza, at 59:14 and 67:30, for the final score of 4-0. Leckey made her defensive save at 67:11 in the frame for her fourth of the season, which tied her with Kelsey Grossman '14 (2012) for third all-time for defensive saves in a season.
