HOBOKEN, N.J. (August 30, 2010) – The Stevens Institute of Technology field hockey team will open its 2010 season on Wednesday, September 1 at The College of New Jersey in Ewing, N.J. Stevens, winners of the past two Empire 8 titles, will be eyeing a three-peat as well as the program’s third trip to the NCAA Division III Field Hockey Championship in as many years. The Ducks have won 36 games over the past two seasons against just eight losses and the 2010 squad comes into the year as the 18th-ranked team in the nation.
Griggs was a first-team All-Empire 8 performer in 2009 and is one of the hardest workers in the history of the program. She was 17-4 between the pipes and compiled a goals-against average of 0.84. She made 82 saves and had a save percentage of .812 to make her one of the stingiest goalkeepers in the nation. Griggs and the Ducks’ defense allowed a total of just 19 goals while pitching eight shutouts.
