Brookville, N.Y. – Sophomore attacker Bryanna Fazio (Watertown, N.Y./General Brown) scored four second-half goals to lead the third-ranked Le Moyne College women's lacrosse team to a 10-6 victory over fourth-ranked LIU Post on Saturday afternoon at Bethpage Stadium.

LIU Post started the game's scoring eight and one-half minutes into the contest on a free-position goal by Stefani Vagelatos.

The Dolphins, who defeated the Pioneers in the NCAA quarterfinals last May, evened the score at one apiece with 15:25 left in the first half. Fazio sent a pass to junior attacker Jacqueline Pardee (Camillus, N.Y./West Genesee), who fired home her first goal of the year.

The Pioneers regained the lead with 11:58 left on a free-position goal by Alyssa Mallery.

Le Moyne countered with consecutive goals to take its first lead of the game. Senior midfielder Molly McGuane (Marcellus, N.Y./Marcellus) knotted the score two minutes later with an unassisted tally. Pardee then finished off another pass from Fazio with 4:43 remaining.

The Pioneers scored the final two goals of the half to take a 4-3 lead into the intermission. Connor Bird scored with 2:19 to go in the half and then fed Morgan Lannig for her first goal of the season with 10 seconds left.

Le Moyne scored three times in the opening 5:38 of the second half to take control of the game. Senior all-America midfielder Vicki Graveline (Syracuse, N.Y./West Genesee) tied the score for the final time just 50 seconds into the half. Freshman attacker Sidney Hall (Adams Center, N.Y./South Jefferson) put the Dolphins in front 47 seconds later with her first career goal off a free-position shot. Fazio found the back of the net for the first time with 24:22 left to put the Dolphins up by two.

Alexis Newman cut Le Moyne's lead back to one with 16:22 to play, but the Dolphins answered with four consecutive goals. Fazio ignited the run with an unassisted marker with 14:01 left. Graveline followed with a free-position goal in an extra-player situation 67 seconds later. Fazio pushed the lead to 9-5 by finishing off a pass from Hall with 3:27 remaining. She scored again 45 seconds later after collecting a pass from classmate Maddie Knapp (Watertown, N.Y./South Jefferson) to complete Le Moyne's scoring.

Bird converted off a pass from Vagelatos with 1:12 remaining to finish off the game's scoring.

Freshman goalkeeper Hannah George (Johnson City, N.Y./Maine-Endwell) earned the win in her collegiate debut after making a pair of saves. Olivia Kirk, who allowed double-digit goals at home for just the third time in her career and for the first time since March 19, 2015 (a span of 19 games), took the loss for the Pioneers after making six saves.

Le Moyne (1-0), which has won four straight games against the Pioneers (allowing an average of just 5.5 goals per game), returns to action against 12th-ranked Grand Valley State University on Thursday at William G. Tierney Field in Sparks, Maryland.
