Syracuse, N.Y. – Five players each tallied at least three points to lead the second-ranked Le Moyne College women's lacrosse team to a 17-7 victory over Pace University in Northeast-10 Conference action at Ted Grant Field on Wednesday afternoon.

The Dolphins scored the first 10 goals of the game over 15:47 to take control of the contest. Sophomore attacker Jacqueline Pardee (Camillus, N.Y./West Genesee) scored the first two in a span of 16 seconds off passes from senior midfielders Erica Geremia (Camillus, N.Y./West Genesee/SUNY Cortland) and Maggie Monnat (Baldwinsville, N.Y./C.W. Baker). The first goal came at 27:16 and the second followed the ensuing draw control.

After almost five scoreless minutes, freshman midfielder Kasi Cabrey (Liverpool, N.Y./Liverpool) scored her sixth goal of the year off a feed in transition from Geremia with 22:04 remaining in the half. Just 25 seconds later, Geremia recorded her 42nd goal of the campaign to force a Pace timeout.

Monnat fed her sister Claire Monnat (Baldwinsville, N.Y./C.W. Baker) for the game's fifth goal with 19:51 to go, while Geremia finished off a pass from freshman attacker Bryanna Fazio (Watertown, N.Y./General Brown) 43 seconds later. Only 28 seconds after that, Fazio recorded her Le Moyne freshman-record 41st goal of the season.

Junior defender Vicki Graveline (Syracuse, N.Y./West Genesee) gave the Dolphins an 8-0 lead with 17:23 remaining by converting a free-position shot for her seventh tally of the season. Just 44 seconds later, junior midfielder Molly McGuane (Marcellus, N.Y./Marcellus) recorded her ninth goal of the campaign, while Fazio gave the Dolphins a double-digit lead for the first time with 14:13 left.

Abby Haimson got the Setters on the scoreboard with her 51st goal of the year with 10:53 remaining.

Geremia pushed the margin back to 10 with 9:08 left after taking a pass from Maggie Monnat.

Courtney Pabst (5:31) and McGuane (4:20) then traded free-position goals before Claire Monnat gave the Dolphins a 13-2 lead at halftime by slamming in a pass from Maggie Monnat with one second left in the half.

Casey Gelderman scored twice in the opening 6:25 of the second half to trim Le Moyne's lead back to nine. She scored off a feed from Haimson at the 29:00 mark and then converted a free-position shot with 23:35 to go.

The Dolphins answered with back-to-back goals to regain an 11-goal lead. Maggie Monnat recorded her career-best 31st goal of the year with 23:04 remaining and then Pardee finished off a pass from Geremia with 21:20 left. The assist marked the 100th of Geremia's Dolphin career, which made her just the second player in the program's history to reach that plateau (with Maggie Monnat being the other).

After Gelderman recorded another free-position goal with 19:32 left, the Dolphins netted back-to-back goals for their largest lead of the game. McGuane recorded her 11th tally of the season with 15:41 left on a free-position shot, while Geremia followed with an unassisted goal with 9:09 to play. The goal was Geremia's 112th as a Dolphin, which moved her into 11th place on the program's career goals scored chart. It also marked her 91st point of the season, the third-highest total in the program's history, trailing only her 121 from last year and Brittany Brigandi's 106 from 2011.

Pace delivered the final score by scoring twice over the last 7:33. Pabst netted her 21st goal of the season off a feed from Gelderman with 7:33 left, while Gelderman converted a free-position shot with 2:11 left for her 44th goal of the year.

Senior goalkeeper Ryan Cortese (Brewerton, N.Y./Paul V. Moore) registered five saves (against four goals) over 39:31 between the pipes to earn her 13th win of the season. Alissa Silvestri took the loss after giving up seven goals over the opening 11:20.

Le Moyne (14-1, 11-1 NE-10), which clinched the second seed in next week's Northeast-10 Conference Championship, closes out the regular season on Saturday at Franklin Pierce University at 11:00 a.m.
