SEWANEE, Tenn. – Shepard Ramsey scored the game-winning goal with just over four minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, as Sewanee field hockey defeated Mary Washington, 1-0, in the semifinals of the Collegiate Field Hockey Conference Championships on Friday afternoon at Tomasini Stadium.

The Tigers (13-5) and Eagles (12-6) battled through three scoreless quarters before Sewanee broke through in the final period.
