The Lady Cavs took the field to face Ursinus College in search of their first win. With conference play rapidly approaching, they couldn’t secure their first victory of the season after a slow start, falling to Ursinus, 12-7, on Tuesday, March 19.

The Lady Cavs fell behind early when they tried to clear the zone, turning the ball over. Janel Folkomer blocked the first shot by Ursinus’ Mary Deliberti but could not stop the rebound shot from Amber Moyer.

The Lady Cavs struggled to gain possession early in the game and fell victim to three fouls. In the next five minutes, the Lady Cavs found themselves down by two, as Moyer scored her second of the game. The scoring did not stop there, just two minutes after Moyer’s goal, Eden Abrams put one behind Folkomer making the score 3-0 Ursinus.

The Lady Cavs finally had their chance when Katie Lasater scored after Ursinus failed to clear the ball. The two teams struggled in the next seven minutes with turnovers and fouls. It looked as if Cabrini would have a chance to bounce back when Bree Thompson had a chance on net but was denied by Ursinus goalkeeper Riley Pembroke. The Lady Cavs peppered Pembroke with five shots in those seven minutes but were denied on all tries.

The Lady Cavs would find themselves down by three as Nicole Kovacs beat Folkomer. With just 13:30 to go in the first half, the Lady Cavs trailed by a score of 4-1.

After a timeout, the next six minutes was back an forth until Kovacs put another shot past Folkomer.

But Ursinus was far from done. In less than two minutes, Ursinus would tack on another goal, making it 6-1 in their favor.

Lasater would take matters into her own hands as she put in another goal before the half ended. At halftime, the Lady Cavs trailed by four, 6-2.

The second half started with Ursinus scoring two goals within the first five minutes of play.

Melissa Scanzano scored her seventh of the season shortly after making it 8-3.

But just two short minutes after Kovacs would get a hat trick and her seventh goal of the season, the Lady Cavs battled their way back into the game when Lacie Doubet ripped a shot passed Pembroke, scoring her eighth goal of the season.

The Lady Cavs would only score two more goals in the game as Ursinus tacked on three more goals to put it away.

The loss sent the Lady Cavs to an 0-4 on the season.

The Lady Cavs next game is on Thursday, March 21, as they take on Swarthmore College at 7 p.m.
