ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa.-- The Elizabethtown field hockey started slow against visiting Eastern but eventually found their groove as Sydney Aguilar netted a hat-trick in the 3-1 win. 

A week from senior, Chloe Smith's first career hat-trick, Aguilar gets her first career hat-trick. 

The first quarter started slow for both teams as the real action didn't begin until the final five minutes of the quarter with an Etown penalty corner. The second quarter was different as the Blue Jays found momentum. On an wide open goal, Aguilar switched from right to left as she snuck past the Eagle goalkeeper. In the final seconds of the half, Aguilar again found the back of the net in a group scrum. At halftime, Etown led 2-0. 

The third quarter began with Elizabethtown possession as the Jays took two shots sandwiched with a penalty corner. With three minutes remaining in the quarter, Eastern took their second corner of the game. The final quarter was no different as Aguilar scored her third goal of the game on another wide open attempt. Following an Eagle corner, Eastern made a penalty stroke to cut Elizabethtown's lead, 3-1. 

Aguilar totaled five shots on three goals in the win. Grace Hardy added two shots. 

The Blue Jays will return home once again as they open Landmark Conference play hosting Susquehanna at 1 PM on Saturday.
