The team held on for a big victory Saturday afternoon over its higher-ranked opponent.
In a tense, defensive battle on a cloudy Saturday afternoon by Lake Michigan, the No. 11 Northwestern women's lacrosse team held on for a dramatic 7-6 victory in its second home game of the season over the No. 10 Stony Brook Seawolves to get back to .500 on the season.
Senior Kaleigh Craig did what seniors are supposed to do, taking charge in the waning minutes of the game and scoring the game winner after a self-start had the Seawolves defense slow to react.
