Gettysburg, PA – Senior Amanda Borucki and junior Emma Christie each scored five goals and senior Maggie Connolly dished out five assists as sixth-ranked Gettysburg raced past Montclair State 13-3 in women's lacrosse action at Clark Field on Saturday afternoon.
 
FRANCESCA VERRONE scored twice with LINDSAY LARE picking up the other goal for MSU, which fell to 2-2 on the season.  ALEXANDRA TEPPER made 10 saves for the Red Hawks.

Gettysburg (3-0) set an early tone defensively with junior goalkeeper Shannon Keeler stopping the first shot she saw at the cage. The Bullets came right back with three scores in 57 seconds. Connolly set the stage for each tally, including a lightning-fast eight-second score by senior Abby Baigelman to make it 3-0.
 
Keeler racked up two more saves and Gettysburg kept rolling on rolling with Connolly tacking on two more helpers before tossing in her own goal to lift the lead to 6-0 with 19:52 to go in the period.
 
Borucki scored the final three goals to send the hosts into the break with a 9-0 lead.
 
Verrone tallied the first two scores of the second half to put the Red Hawks on the board. Montclair won each of the next three draw controls, but Gettysburg's stifling defense forced turnovers which led directly to more offense for the home team. Christie picked up two more goals, while Borucki scored her fifth goal to make it a 10-goal lead with nearly 20 minutes on the clock.  
 
Gettysburg fired off 33 shots, while holding Montclair to just 11. The Bullets also held the edge in ground balls (21-12) and draw controls (9-8).

MSU now heads to the West Coast where they will face Claremont Mudd-Scripps College on Friday, March 11 in California. Game time is scheduled for 7:00 pm Eastern Time.
