KENT, Ohio — The University of Maine field hockey team’s game Saturday morning against Temple University was stopped after 70 minutes because of a field conflict at Kent State University, where the game was being played.
The teams played through regulation and one overtime with no goals scored. At that point, according to a tweet from the UMaine field hockey account, “Kent State administration came onto the field prior to the second overtime half and called off the game to allow the noontime Kent football game to begin on time.”
A tweet from the Kent State field hockey account read: “We regret today’s game had to be stopped during overtime play per field guidelines as previously discussed. We recognize the hard work and dedication of all student-athletes. The safety of our community, including student-athletes and visitors is always our first consideration.”
The game was declared an exhibition and will not impact either team’s stats or overall record, according to UMaine’s Twitter account.
