DAVIS, Calif.
-- Junior Kylie Rosette
(Watertown, N.Y./General
Brown) scored four goals with three assists - including
three straight score in her team's 8-0 opening run - to lead Le
Moyne to a 13-8 victory over UC Davis in non-conference women's
collegiate lacrosse action at Aggie Field Tuesday. Senior
Amanda Keegan (Marcellus, N.Y./Marcellus) added
three goals for the Dolphins (1-1).
Rosette scored three straight goals in a span of five minutes then
assisted on the next three goals during the Dolphins' 8-0 opening
run. Aggie junior Katie McGovern finally stopped the onslaught with
an unassisted goal with 2:12 left in the first half, then
Leah Mazella (Syracuse,
N.Y./Henninger) tacked on one more to give Le Moyne a 9-1
halftime edge.
UC Davis cut into the lead in the second half. Lapolla won the
opening draw after the break, then O'Connor hit a goal just 1:44
into the period to start the Aggies. Clark hit an eight-meter goal
at the 41:29 mark, then Lapolla scored on back-to-back possessions
in the 47th and 48th minutes to cut the deficit to 10-5.
However, Keegan scored two goals in a 3-0 stretch to push the
Dolphins back up by eight with five minutes remaining. O'Connor and
Clark combined for three goals down the final stretch to bring the
score to its final tally of 13-8.

minutes of action. Her counterpart, Aggie junior Hilary Harkins,
had six saves against 24 shots.

squad with four ground balls and four draw controls.
