Blauvelt, NY (4/28/07) The Saint Vincent's College women's lacrosse team defeated visiting Dominican College Lady Chargers, 21-4 this afternoon.
The Lady Bearcats jumped out to a big early lead and coasted the
rest of the way, defeating Dominican College 21-4 on Senior
Day.
In its final home contest of the year, SVC struck quickly, taking
a 5-0 lead on a Sarah Peranteau goal just four
minutes in. The lead continued to grow, as Lauren
Eller's third goal of the half, with 30 seconds left, gave
the hosts a 14-0 advantage heading into the intermission.
Teammate Jenna Moon scored four goals over
the first 30 minutes, while Peranteau scored twice
in the first half.
Not to be outdone, the Lady Bearcat defense was stifling, allowing
just four shots on goal over the first 30 minutes.
Cassie Alberding and Megan Sekinger each
scored to open the second half, pushing the SVC advantage to
16-0.
Dominican then scored three unanswered goals, two by
Althea Chambers (Yonkers, NY) and one by
Ashley Ordemann (Toms River, NJ), to make the
score 16-3 with 20 minutes remaining, but SVC ended by scoring five
of the next six goals, with two more coming from
Eller, to pick up the big win.
Ordemann scored her second goal of the day,
closing out the scoring for the Chargers, with 1:20 remaining in
regulation.
Five Lady Bearcats scored at least twice on the day, with five
goals coming from both Eller and
Moon, who ends her season with 35 goals and her
career with 125, good for second all-time in the program's history.
Four other seniors recorded multiple points in their final game in
the green and gold, including Meredith Ruffing (2
goals, 1 assist), Kristen Blackburn (2g, 1a),
Laura Fedor (1g, 2a), and Bethany
Evans (1g, 1a). Senior Candice
Decker started the game in goal and posted a clean slate,
stopping all nine shots sent her way, aided by a strong Lady
Bearcat defensive performance led by two more seniors, Mary
Kate Connoly and Danielle Walsh.
