The Navy women's lacrosse team did not disappoint the home crowd in the season opener as the Mids defeated Longwood, 20-3, on Sunday at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.
"We had a strong fall ball and preseason leading up to today, so I am proud of our players and how they carried through the hard work we put in the offseason to start off our season," Navy head coach Cindy Timchal said "There is still a lot of work to do, but this was a good way to start off 2017."
Navy (1-0) was nearly flawless on all facets, as it held advantages in shots, 39-10, shots on goal, 30-7, ground balls, 24-9, clear opportunities, 18-of-22 to 10-of-14 and turnovers, 10-23.
