FARMINGTON, Maine – October 4, 2014 - The Colby-Sawyer field hockey team had its three game win streak snapped with a 5-0 loss at Umaine-Farmington Saturday afternoon at Prescott Field.
 
Saturday's North Atlantic Conference battle was between the top two teams on a wet and drizzly playing surface. The Beavers improve to 6-3 overall and 2-0 in the NAC, while Colby-Sawyer drops to 6-5 overall and 1-1 in conference play.
