Lacrosse Takes Down Hawks 20-5 for USAS Sweep

Box Score

RALEIGH, N.C. - The Meredith College lacrosse team capped off the weekend's USA South doubleheader with a 20-5 victory over the visiting Huntingdon Hawks. Rookie Carlee Joseph led the team with 10 total points on the day.

The Avenging Angels made quick work of the Hawks scoring all 14 first half goals for a double-digit advantage heading into the break.

The usual suspects gave Meredith the lead as Katie Burnet netted four and Jennifer Halvorson found the gap on three occasions in the first 30 minutes of play. Joseph tallied six of her points on five assists and one goal before the break.

Taylor Pearce opened the scoring in the second half on a pass from Victoria Doyle, and Huntingdon followed with their first goal of the game at the hands of a free position shot from Jen Price.

The teams exchanged points during the next 18 minutes, leaving the Angels with the clear advantage at 18-5.

Freshman Lynsi Beers and Joseph closed out the scoring in the final three minutes of play to secure the win for good.

Beers notched three goals in her three attempts, and Meadows and Doyle finished with two apiece. Meghan Brooks claimed her third win in goal with a pair of saves.

Four Hawks got in on the scoring with Candace Williams leading the pack with two. Keeper Victoria Krupa took the loss recording nine saves in her complete game played.

The Avenging Angels head to Clermont, Florida, this week and will play a pair of non-conference foes at the National Training Center near Orlando. Meredith will face Ursinus of Collegeville, Pennsylvania, Tuesday afternoon and the Westfield State Owls Thursday morning. Check back HERE for possible live coverage.

The team returns home the final Sunday of spring break to make up February's match with the Sweet Briar Vixens. First draw is slated for 4 p.m. on the Meredith turf.
