Boston College women’s lacrosse defeated another ranked opponent today to start the season 2-0, taking down the #23 UMass Minutewomen by a score of 16-6 despite losing Jenn Medjid to an injury.
UMass scored first in today’s game, but it was pretty much all Eagles from there, with BC not giving up a lead change for the remainder of the game after going up 3-2 late in the first quarter. The Eagles went into halftime leading 8-5, and held UMass to just a single goal in the entire second half.
The Eagles outshot the Minutewomen 32-19 today (23-15 in shots of goal) and did not give up a single free position opportunity.
