WLAX: DOLPHINS OUTLAST BUCKNELL IN OT, 10-9, BEHIND BARZEE’S FIVE GOALS

Syracuse, N.Y. – The Le Moyne College women’s lacrosse team snapped a three-game skid Sunday afternoon, coming from behind in overtime to knock off Bucknell University, 10-9, in non-conference action at Onondaga Community College. Sophomore Nerissa Barzee (Baldwinsville, N.Y./Baldwinsville) netted a career-high five goals, including the game-winner, to lead the Dolphins.

Trailing by two goals with under 10 minutes to play in regulation, Le Moyne stormed back thanks to a score from sophomore Rebekah Elmer (Syracuse, N.Y./West Genesee) at the 9:39 mark and Barzee’s fourth goal with 5:02 to play. The Bison pushed ahead by a goal, 9-8, with 58 seconds left in the first overtime session when Carol Donahue scored on an empty net. The Dolphins responded with two goals in the second three-minute session. Junior Jackie Lundblad (Marietta, N.Y./Marcellus) put in the equalizer at the 1:52 mark before Barzee sent home the deciding tally with just over a minute to play. Le Moyne won the subsequent draw control and ran out the final 62 seconds of overtime.

The game featured six ties but only three lead changes. After sophomores Katlin Walker (Penn Yan, N.Y./Penn Yan) and Lauren Crary (Rochester, N.Y./Irondequoit) wrapped a pair of goals around a Chelsea Peters score to give the Dolphins a 2-1 lead, the Bison erupted for three consecutive scores to take a 4-2 lead with 6:44 remaining in the first half. Le Moyne scored three of the first half’s final four goals to tie the score at 5-5 by the halftime break. Walker netted her second goal and Barzee answered a Julia Braun tally with her first and second scores of the game.

Bucknell pushed in front just about five minutes into the second half before Barzee evened the score with her third goal of the game. Donohue scored back-to-back goals for the Bison over the next nine minutes to give Bucknell an 8-6 lead with 14 minutes to play. But Le Moyne staged its rally by scoring four of the game’s final five goals.

Freshman netminder Kelly Fucillo (Camillus, N.Y./West Genesee) stopped a variety of shots from point-blank range and finished with eight saves in goal for Le Moyne.

Barzee’s five goals were the most by a Dolphin this season. Walker’s pair of goals gives her seven over the past three games and Crary’s was her first tally of the season. Elmer’s goal pushed her team lead to 25 on the season while senior McKenzie Gray (Baldwinsville, N.Y./Baldwinsville) picked up a pair of assists to add to her team-best season total of 22. Barzee and classmate Leah Lazarz (Liverpool, N.Y./Liverpool) contributed one assist each for Le Moyne.

With the win over the Bison (8-4), the Dolphins (5-7) topped a team with a winning record for the first time this season. Le Moyne plays the final game of a six-game homestand when they host Binghamton University on Tuesday.
