ONEONTA, N.Y.- Sophomore Delainey Hebble scored her first collegiate goal at the perfect time as Rochester defeated Hartwick College, 1-0, here on Saturday. Her goal at 56:06 snapped a 0-0 tie that threatened to go into overtime.
 
Seconds before, Nikki Mercer's lifted ball eluded Hartwick keeper Madison Maddocks, but struck the crossbar. Hebble got to the rebound first and buried it. The victory pushes Rochester's record to 2-0 on the young season. Hartwick is 1-1. The Hawks produced some late-game magic of their own in the opener. Hartwick scored twice in the final eight minutes to edge RPI, 3-2, earlier this week. Rochester opened its season on Wednesday with a 7-1 victory over Nazareth College.
 
In goal, Abigail Walrond made three saves on nine Hartwick shots. Maddocks registered six saves on 11 Rochester shots.
 
At the start of the second period, Rochester unleashed a blitz of shots at Maddocks, getting four shots at goal including one by Juney Lee that hit the post.
 
The Yellowjackets will play four of their next five matches at home – starting with a Wednesday meeting with Cortland State (7 pm tipoff). The only away game in that stretch sends UR right back to Oneonta – to play at Oneonta State next Saturday.
