Chestnut Hill College (3-12, 3-8) thrilled the home crowd with its highest output of the season on Saturday afternoon.

Leanna Ashcom (Philadelphia, Pa.) on a breakaway at 30:30, 3-0, and then scoring two tallies of her own with a breakaway down the left side (35:09, 4-0) and a chipped corner (38:24, 5-0).
