Utica College will host the 2014 Empire 8 Field Hockey Tournament in the four-team format on Nov. 8-9. The Pioneers garnered the top seed after winning each of its eight league contests, including a 3-1 victory over St. John Fisher today to determine the No. 1 seeding.
Fisher locked in the second seed with a 7-1 mark in E8 play.
Washington & Jefferson and Stevens each finished with a 5-3 conference record, but W&J earns the No. 3 position by virtue of a regular season win over the Ducks. Stevens defeated Nazareth 6-0 today to secure the fourth-seed.
