FREDONIA, N.Y. -- Fredonia's offense came alive Tuesday and its early season skid came to an end with a 3-1 win over St. John Fisher.

Goals by Maria Gordon (Stephentown, N.Y.), Ally Tatro (Fairport, N.Y.), and Kristie Kleine (Cazenovia, N.Y.) ended a Blue Devil streak of four straight games without a goal. In addition, the win ended an eight-game losing streak as the Blue Devils improved to 2-8 overall.

Kendall Owczarzak (Depew, N.Y.) finished with eight saves in the Blue Devil net. Michelle Hale (Lockport, N.Y.) and Tatro were credited with assists.

Nicolette Nigro scored the St. John Fisher goal. The Cardinals dropped to 4-5-1.

Gordon (Stephentown, N.Y.) put the Blue Devils on top, 1-0, in the 23rd minute. The play began in the midfield as Hale booted a high ball over the defense. Gordon then won a 50-50 ball and manuevered around her defender. She eluded Fisher goalkeeper Sarah O'Brien, who had come off her line, and scored into the vacated net. .

It was the first collegiate goal and point for Gordon, and the first collegiate point for Hale.

Nigro scored for Fisher in the 43rd minute and the teams went into halftime tied 1-1. It didn't stay that way for long. Immediately off the second-half kickoff, two passes set up Tatro, who stepped into her shot and scored into the top right corner from 30 yards out just 18 seconds into the second half. It proved to be the game-winning goal.

Kleine added an insurance goal in the 64th minute. The Blue Devils countered out of their own end with two quick passes, the second a long through ball by Tatro. Kleine outran a lone defender and slid a shot into the far lower corner from 25 yards out. It was her second goal of the season.

Fredonia returns to SUNYAC play when they entertain Buffalo State at 1 p.m. Saturday.
