SYRACUSE, N.Y. (April 25,
2013) – Senior attacker Ashley
Lamagdeleine (Westfield, Mass.) and senior midfielder
Courtney Weber
(Centerport, N.Y.) each scored in their final collegiate
game on Saturday, but the Franklin Pierce University women's
lacrosse team dropped an 18-6 decision on the road against No. 4
nationally ranked Le Moyne in Northeast-10 Conference play at
Athletic Turf Complex. Senior attacker Brenna Bauer tallied five
points on three goals and two assists to lead the way for Le Moyne,
which heads into next week's Northeast-10 Championship as the top
seed.
With the loss, Franklin Pierce
wraps up its season at 3-12 (2-10 Northeast-10), while Le Moyne
improves to 14-2 (11-1 Northeast-10).
After freshman midfielder
Lauren
Beville (Jamesville, N.Y.) opened the scoring for
Franklin Pierce, Le Moyne scored the next four, including a goal
and two assists from Bauer, to take a 4-1 lead 9:32 into the first
half. Freshman midfielder Kaitlyn Armstrong picked up a goal and an
assist for Le Moyne in the first 10 minutes as well.
From there, the Ravens scored three
of the next five goals to cut the gap to 6-4 with 13:20 to play in
the first half. Freshman attacker Nicole Dale
(Ronkonkoma, N.Y.) scored the first of her two goals,
while sophomore midfielder Madeline
Shopshire (Hyannis, Mass.) added an unassisted goal as
well. Weber capped the mini-run with her final collegiate goal, her
22nd of the season and the 107th of her career, on a free-position
attempt. She is one of five players in program history to top 100
career goals.
Le Moyne would score the final four
goals of the first half to take a 10-4 lead into the intermission,
and then added the first four of the second half as well to put the
game out of reach at 14-4. Bauer scored twice more to notch all
five of her points in the first half, while Armstrong added another
goal and junior attacker Kathleen Conese scored twice.
Lamagdeleine snapped the eight-goal
run with 15:21 to play in regulation with her 16th score of the
season, the 64th and final goal of her career. After spending much
of her first two seasons coming off the bench for the Ravens, she
scored 44 of those 64 goals over her junior and senior
campaigns.
Dale scored the final goal for the

Beville added the assist to make it a two-point afternoon for her
as well. Sophomore attacker Catie McKay scored twice in the second
half for Le Moyne.
