The #5 Gators opened their season today in Baltimore vs. #11 Johns Hopkins. In a very tight match that was tied 6-6 at halftime, the Gators fell behiund in the 4th quarter, but scored 3 goals in the last 3:21, the go-ahead goal with 18 seconds left, to win 12-11. Johns Hopkins outshot Florida 37-19 and beat them in draw controls 15-7. But Gator goaltender Georgia Hoey had 10 saves to keep the Gators in the match and allow them to pull it out in the end.
