Rockville Centre, NY- The Philadelphia University women's lacrosse team (5-6, 5-2 CACC) suffered a 17-9 road loss at Molloy College (5-6) on Friday afternoon. Senior attack Sarah Davis (Dublin, OH/ Dublin Scioto) led the way for PhilaU, notching a team-high three goals and one assist.
MC took an early 1-0 lead just two minutes into the first half, but PhilaU sophomore midfielder Michelle O'Hanlon (Springfield, PA/ Springfield ) put one in the net at 27:27 to tie it at 1-1. Unfortunately for the Lady Rams, MC fired off three straight shots to take a 4-1 lead and would never relinquish their advantage as Rebecca LaFlare racked up eight points to lead all scorers on the day.
The Lady Rams trailed 9-4 at the half.
PhilaU also got two goals each from freshmen Taylor Peltzer (Holland, PA/ Archbishop Wood) and Caribeth Shappell (Lancaster, PA/ Cocalico). Goalie Katherine Sullivan (Mt. Laurel, NJ/ Lenape) had 10 saves in goal in 60 minutes for the maroon and gray.
