Box Score

SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – The Shippensburg University women's lacrosse team scored four times in the first two-and-a-half minutes of regulation on Tuesday afternoon and rolled to a convincing 17-5 victory over WVIAC opponent Wheeling Jesuit from Robb Sports Complex.

Wearing red and yellow shoelaces in tribute to the Seton Hill women's lacrosse team, the Raiders (2-2) evened their record to .500 with a 14-goal first-half effort – the most SU has scored in a half since also netting 14 in a 21-5 home win over Shepherd on March 27 last season.

The Raiders also provided red and yellow ribbons to all fans in attendance and paused for a moment of silence for the Griffins before the start of the game.

Shippensburg's early 4-0 lead was eventually extended to a 9-0 margin midway through the first half. Shippensburg led by as many as 13 after a goal just over two minutes into the second half put the Cardinals (2-5) in a 15-2 deficit.

Senior Lindsey Kennedy and junior Bennett Widlake each scored hat tricks with Widlake adding two assists for a game-high five points.

Sophomore Courtney Kennedy and junior Ashley Pope each scored twice. Senior Roxanne Brown added a game-high three assists to go along with two goals.

Sophomore Sheila Johnson, junior Kayla Dalzell and junior Amanda Krok each recorded stat lines of one goal and two assists.

Freshman goalkeeper Ally Frymoyer earned the victory in goal before freshman Summar Elgogari took over duties in the second half and made one save.

The Raiders will travel to Florida tomorrow for a pair of games during the remainder of their spring break. SU will play at Saint Leo at 7 p.m. Thursday before squaring off against Florida Southern on Saturday at 1 p.m.
