How It Happened
FREDERICK, Md. – Lebanon Valley's Women's Lacrosse team outscored Hood College 12-6 in the second half and took down the Blazers 22-11 in each team's regular-season finale on Wednesday night in MAC Commonwealth action. The Flying Dutchmen moved to 6-6, 4-4 MACC and Hood went to 3-8, 2-5 MACC.
 
After the Blazers began the scoring less than a minute into the first half, LVC rattled off five straight to take a 5-1 advantage with 17:19 left. During that spurt, Sydney Zimmerman and Jaclyn Little each netted a pair, while Brittany Hathaway began the run with a goal from Veronica Venezia, who had four assists during LVC's all-important run.
 
Later, with the Dutchmen ahead 6-2, Hood began to come back with three consecutive goals to make it 6-5 with 7:58 left. LVC answered again, however, beginning with Venezia's goal at 5:18. Hathaway then found the back of the net off an assist from Bailey Dills, followed by another Venezia tally and a goal by Livia Jackson as the Dutchmen ended the first on a 5-0 run to take a 10-5 lead into the second half.
 
In the second half, LVC's offense continued to fire on all cylinders. Dills scored at 26:34 and Emily Beard netted a goal just over a minute later. Then, after the Blazers came to within eight at 17-9 with 15 minutes to go, LVC put the game out of reach thanks to another 5-0 run. From there, LVC cruised to a 22-11 victory to close out the regular season.
