No. 5 Women’s Lacrosse peppers Washington (Md.), 19-5

CHESTERTOWN, Md. – The fifth-ranked Salisbury University women's lacrosse team continued its blistering start to the season on Saturday afternoon, charging out of Chestertown with a 19-5 victory over the Washington (Md.) Shorewomen at Roy Kirby, Jr. Stadium.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Sea Gulls opened the scoring with a pair of putaways in the first five minutes. Camryn Pepper and Miranda Mears each tallied unassisted strikes to give Salisbury a 2-0 lead with 10:20 remaining in the quarter.
  • Washington got one back less than a minute later before a maroon and gold wave crashed on Kibler Field. The Sea Gulls unleashed an 11-goal run spanning nearly 26 minutes of game time, beginning with solo goals by Erin Scannell and Julianna Ott. Pepper connected with Scannell for her second goal of the frame before Abby Lantos joined the scoring column to give SU a 6-1 lead through 15 minutes.
  • Mary Hanzsche began the second stanza with an unassisted goal before Meridith Price dished to Leah Vilov to push the margin to seven nearly three minutes later. Caroline Knight posted back-to-back goals separated by just 50 seconds, with Lauren Hackett dishing on the second for SU's 10th goal of the contest.
  • Hackett picked up another assist 45 seconds later courtesy of Alexandra Parker before Price and Vilov renewed their connection to push Salisbury's lead to 12-1 at intermission.
  • Parker found Hanzsche in the opening seconds of the third quarter to extend the margin to 12 before the Shorewomen found twine in the ensuing minutes.
  • Washington saw a goal sandwiched by a pair of Salisbury strikes, including an unassisted finish by Ott and a Mears tally (aided by Parker) before Ott pounced again to widen the Sea Gull gap to 16-3 heading in to the fourth.
  • Salisbury tacked on three goals in the fourth, courtesy of Vilov (assisted by Hackett), Hartman (assisted by Harrington), and Lantos. Washington scored a pair in the final five minutes, but Salisbury cruised to the 19-5 victory.
