SMITHFIELD, R.I. - Bryant University junior Delia
Glover (Marston Mills, MA) scored six goals while senior
Caitlin Hansen (Spring Lake, NJ) added five as the
Bulldogs held on down the stretch for a 15-13 win over Bentley
College in a Northeast-10 Conference women's lacrosse quarterfinal
round game Wednesday at the Bryant Turf Complex.
Bryant, the third seed of the tournament, will travel to
Manchester, NH to face second-seed Southern New Hampshire this
Friday at 7 p.m. Bentley, which got three goals from Alyssa
Ritchie (North Andover, MA) and Jaclyn Griffin
(Barrington, IL), ends its season at 7-10.
Bryant (10-7), looking to avenge an overtime loss to the Falcons
back in March, took a 9-5 lead into the halftime break and stretch
its lead to 13-7 following goals from Glover, Allison
Faiola (Billerica, MA) and Hansen midway through the
second half.
But the Falcons would not go away quietly as Ritchie scored a
pair of pretty goals and Kim Morris (Saratoga Springs,
NY) followed with a goal at 16:17 to pull to within
13-10.
Later, a free position goal from Glover made it 15-10 but Morris
and Griffin were there to make it a 15-12 game with just over three
minutes to go. Liz Goddard (Acton, MA) made
it a two goal difference with a quick strike with 1:31 left, but a
late offensive charging call helped allow the Bulldogs to run out
the clock and advance.
Hansen finished with seven ground balls in the game while
Jessica Bolton (Belgrade Lakes, Maine) made 10
saves in net.
