The Lady Cavs extended their winning streak to eight games with an 18-8 win over Immaculata University on Tuesday, April 16.
The Lady Cavs showed their dominance right from the first goal of the game to even the score which was scored with just over two minutes into the game by sophomore Taylor Carroll.
Lacie Doubet led the Cavaliers with a season high six goals and seven points. Her first goal of the game also gave the Lady Cavs the lead.
Sophomore Melissa Scazano also tallied three goals and two assists in the win. Christina Pasquariello was also beneficial towards the win with two goals and two assists.
This was the last time that Pasquariello and Kaitlyn Smith would play on the Dixon Field, at least until the playoffs. It was the final regular season game for the two senior athletes.
They have had extremely successful careers. Pasqueriello, in her career, was able to score 86 goals with 45 assists, excellent numbers for a four-year career. Smith, who mainly played a defensive role, forced 19 turnovers and secured 19 career ground balls.
Sara Carzo scored her first goal four minutes into the first half. Doubet had a hat trick in the first four minutes of the game as well with the last goal unassisted. Scanzano scored her first moments after Doubet’s third.
Nearing the end of the first half Carzo, Pasqueriello and freshmen Nathalie Basunga both scored to increase the lead to 14-4.
Sophomore Karlie Gruccio scored about a minute into the second half of the game. Scanzano had completed a hat trick 30 seconds after Gruccio’s goal. Freshman Grace Capuzzi added to the influx of goals with her third career goal with 27 minutes left in the second half.
Doubet showed extreme skill today with the goal total that she produced on a regular basis in her freshman season.
This win was the eight win in a row for the women’s lacrosse team. They go for their ninth straight win as they close out the conference schedule for the season when they face Rosemont College on Saturday, April 20, at 1 p.m.
