WILLIAMSBURG, VA (April 1) --The College of William & Mary (1-7) women's lacrosse team fell to #3 Duke University (7-2) today, 18-9, at
Barksdale Field in Williamsburg. The Tribe struck first on a goal by Lindsey Lowman (Lothian, MD/Southern) six and one-half
minutes into the game, but then was held scoreless for almost 14 minutes as the Blue Devils scored eight unanswered goals to take a
commanding lead that they would never relinquish. The Tribe's next two scores came from Meghan Schneider (West Chester,
PA/West Chester East), first at the 9:51 mark and again five minutes later at 4:51. Each team scored two goals in the final 2:30 of the
half, including two W&M goals, separated by just 11 seconds, by Amy Pugno (Upper Montclair, NJ) and Lowman, at 1:49 and 1:38,
respectively. Duke scored with just 14 seconds remaining in the period to bring the halftime score to 10-5.
W&M opened the second period scoring when freshman Allison Evans (Annandale, VA/ Annandale) recorded her third goal of the season at 23:34. Duke came back with another scoring spurt with three goals over the next ten minutes. Each team traded goals three times each for the next seven minutes of the game to bring the score to 16-9 with 4:09 remaining. The Blue Devils added two insurance goals in the final two minutes of the contest for the final score of 18-9. Schneider led the Tribe scoring with three goals, bringing her total to five on the season. Sophomore Colette Chaput (Toronto, Ontario/Malvern) and Lowman each added a pair of scores, while Tara Hannaford (New London, CT/Portsmouth Abbey) and Lowman each had one goal to round out W&M's scoring.
