BEVERLY, Mass. – The Endicott women’s
lacrosse team handed Western New England a 21-6 loss at Endicott
Stadium on Saturday afternoon, as the trio of senior Morgan
DeShaw (Danville, N.H.) and juniors Holly Davis
(Guilford, Conn.) and Kelly Tierney (South Hadley,
Mass.) combined for 19 points against the Golden
Bears.
DeShaw finished with four goals and three assists, Davis with five
goals and one assist, and Tierney with fours and two assists in the
win.
Stellar play between the pipes by senior goalie Leah Neff
(South Berwick, Maine) also contributed towards the
Endicott win as Neff stuffed nine Western New England shots on
goal. Her six goals allowed was below her season total of
8.93 goals allowed per game.
Western New England fell behind by 10 goals late in the first
half, but three straight goals by senior midfielder Katie
Toomy (Northborough, Mass.) brought the Golden Bears to
within seven at 12-4 just 59 seconds into the second half.
Toomy would finish with tied with Endicott’s Davis for a
game-high five goals but Western New England struggled to get
offense output from other contributors. Only Megan
Doyle (Putnam Valley, N.Y.) was able to produce any
offense as she tallied an unassisted goal at the 22:25 mark of the
second half.
Tierney opened up the scoring 2:42 into the game on a free
position shot for her 22nd goal of the season.
Toomy would answer right back at 24:54 off an assist from sophomore
Kelsey Sherman (Buchanan, N.Y.) to tie the game at
1-1.
Endicott kicked their offense into gear and ran off 10 straight
goals to take a commanding 11-1 lead. Other than DeShaw,
Davis and Tierney, junior Lauren Todd (Newfields,
N.H.), sophomore Rachel Campos (Shrewsbury,
Mass.) and freshman Caroline Wall
(East Sandwich, Mass.) recorded goals during that
stretch.
After Toomy’s back-to-back-to-back goals to stop the
bleeding, the Gulls responded with three in-a-row including two
from Todd.
Endicott would rattle off scoring streaks of four and three before
the game would be over. Sophomore midfielder Callie
Murphy (Woburn, Mass.) was able to score two goals late in
the game, one on a free position shot and the other, unassisted, to
cap off the scoring at 21-6.
Defensively, Campos led all players with three caused turnovers
and four draw controls to go along with her four points (goal,
three assists). Todd added two caused turnovers. Both
players had four groundballs which was shy of goalie Leah
Neff’s game-high seven.
For the Golden Bears, senior defender Veronica Miano
(Southington, Conn.) led her squad with two caused
turnovers while Toomy added to her stat line with six draw
controls, three groundballs and a caused turnover.
Endicott was near perfect on clear attempts, going 19-for-20 while
Western New England was 9-of-14. On free position attempts,
the Gulls were 4-of-6. Western New England held a 16-12
advantage on draw controls.
The Gulls will face their third nationally-ranked opponent on
Tuesday, April 10th as they take on Bowdoin at 7:00 pm
