Lady
Warriors Defeat Susquehanna
Wallenhorst and
McIntyre Each Score Four Goals
WILLIAMSPORT,
Pa.—Lycoming’s women’s lacrosse team (12-1, 7-1) defeated
conference opponent Susquehanna (4-6, 3-5) on Wednesday by a
score of 13-7. Junior Megan Wallenhorst (Rochester, NY)
and freshman Megan McIntyre (Baltimore, MD) scored four
goals apiece to pace the Lady Warriors.
Lycoming
scored the game’s first three goals, including two by
Wallenhorst, who would notch three goals in the first half.
Sophomores Sarah Wingerden (Macedon, NY) and Kelly
Mack (New Egypt, NJ) also found the net in the opening half.
But Susquehanna did not give in easily and at the break the Lady
Warrior lead was just 6-3.
Susquehanna’s
Rachel Devilbiss and Dana Mulvihill scored around
another Wallenhorst goal to open the second frame. Meanwhile,
Lady Crusader Mary Minuni scored two of her three goals
in the second period. But ultimately, Lycoming’s firepower
proved too much for Susquehanna. McIntyre scored three of her
four goals in the second half, while Wingerden added another and
Mack scored two more times in the game’s final five minutes to
secure the win.
Lady Warrior
Heather Suit (Annapolis, MD) had three assists on the day
to lead both teams, while goalie Kristina Peacock (Webster,
NY) made many impressive stops on her way to 16 saves and
her twelfth win of the season.
Lycoming
will secure second place in the MAC, and a first round playoff
bye, by winning its final two games. On April 21, the Lady
Warriors travel to Drew to face the MAC’s other one-loss team.
Then, on April 28th, Lycoming takes on Wilkes away to
finish the regular season.
