MADISON, NJ - Misericordia scored three second half goals in the span of eight minutes to turn a 3-2 deficit into a 5-3 lead on their way to a 5-4 win over the College at Florham Devils in Freedom Conference action on Saturday afternoon.

With the loss, the Devils dropped to 4-7-2 (0-2 Freedom) while the Cougars improved to 4-9 (1-1 Freedom).
