COLCHESTER, VT –
Freshman Carolyn Cherry (Pittsburgh, Pa.) scored five goals,
including the game-winner, to lead the Saint Lawrence University
women’s lacrosse team to a 11-10 victory over Saint Michael’s
College in a non-conference match-up today at Doc Jacobs Field.
With the win, the
Saints improve to 5-1, while the Purple Knights fall to 2-3 overall.
The scoring went back
and forth in the early going as SMC’s Alexa Huckins-Noss (Calais,
Vt.) scored three consecutive goals for her first career hat trick.
Former U-32 High School teammate Erin Redmond (E. Montpelier, Vt.)
also notched a goal for Saint Michael’s as the home team went into
intermission down 8-6.
The Purple Knights
defense worked hard to hold the Saints to just three goals in the final
30 minutes, as they attempted to fight back on the offensive side, but
came up just short. Junior Amanda Lohin (Wellesley, Mass.) netted
a hat trick for Saint Michael’s.
Freshman goalie Jess
Anderson (Springfield, Vt.) made 12 saves for SMC, while Desiree
McKoan (Waccabuc, N.Y.) had nine saves for the Saints.
Saint Michael’s
returns to action tomorrow when they travel to cross-town rival
University of Vermont for a 4 p.m. contest.
