The University of Colorado women’s lacrosse team welcomed the Stanford Cardinal to Kittredge Field on Friday and in an absolute overtime thriller, the No. 18 Cardinal edged the No. 22 Buffaloes (7-6, 6-2 Pac-12), 13-12.
The two teams traded punches all game long. Each led late, but it was Stanford that came away with the important late season conference victory.
Colorado head coach Ann Elliott Whidden stressed a sense of urgency down the line as the Buffs continue to fight for the top spot in the competitive Pac-12 Conference.
“Every play counts and every minute and every second counts that we’re out there,” she said.
