The women’s lacrosse team made program history Saturday afternoon, winning a berth in the BIG EAST tournament for the first time after a 15-14 win over the University of Connecticut. Senior midfielder Allison Lane scored the game-winning goal with 1:55 left in the second half.
“I had no thoughts going through my mind, but I think that’s when I play the best,” Lane said. “I just caught the ball and shot.”
With the first-ever program win over UConn (8-9,4-5 BIG EAST), the Golden Eagles (10-7, 6-3 BIG EAST) finish their regular season home slate at 8-1, a program-best.
