Staten Island, NY – The Wagner College field hockey team welcomes the University of Albany to the Wagner College Field Hockey Complex for its home opener on Friday, Sept. 3 at 2 p.m.
 
The Seahawks opened their fall 2021 season at Hofstra on Sunday afternoon when they lost to the Pride 5-1. Senior Laura Van Hamburg scored the lone goal Wagner as it was her second career tally. The loss moves the Seahawks to 1-2 lifetime against Hofstra. Starting goalie Erin Franklin made seven saves in goal for the Green & White. "We are excited to go into our second game and the first home game of the season," said Miller. "The players have put in a lot of hard work into learning from the last game against Hofstra. Every game we are looking to grow as a team to get us prepared for conference play."
 
This will be the second meeting between Wagner and Albany in field hockey. The Seahawks fell to Albany 4-0 on September 29, 2019, on the road. This upcoming contest will be the first time Albany travels to Grymes Hill.
