The Saint Mary’s Huskies defeated the UPEI Panthers 1-0 to win the Maritime university field hockey championship Sunday in Charlottetown.
Rebecca Pointon scored for SMU on a deflection off a penalty corner with just over five minutes remaining. The Panthers appeared to tie the game two minutes later off a scramble in front of the Saint Mary’s keeper. However, even though a goal was initially signaled, the call was reversed because one of the officials ruled the ball had hit a UPEI player’s foot.
