BOULDER - Colorado's lacrosse team will take a four-game winning streak into Evanston, Ill., on Friday to face No. 7/15 Northwestern at noon CT. The game was rescheduled from Thursday after a massive snowstorm prevented the Buffaloes from leaving Boulder. CU will also face Michigan on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
The Buffs are currently 6-1 and are seeking their first win over a nationally-ranked opponent in the third-year program. Cali Castagnola remains the team's leading scorer with 16 goals through seven games, leading four more Buffs with 12 or more goals. Sarah Brown has been one of the top performers on defense, leading the team with 16 caused turnovers, while Marie Moore has been a steady presence in the midfield with 24 draw controls, 16 ground balls and 12 caused turnovers.
