For the first time since joining the Northeast-10, the University of New Haven Chargers Women’s Lacrosse team are 10-0 to start the season.

On Wednesday, April 2, they had a tough road trip as they faced the number four Le Moyne Dolphins up in Syracuse, NY.

At halftime, the Chargers found themselves trailing the Dolphins 6-2 at the end of the first half.

New Haven Chargers began the second half with a huge response, going on a 5-0 run to take a one-goal lead.

The rest of the game continued with both teams trading punches, until Le Moyne’s Victoria Nies tied the game at 10 apiece with 7:11 minutes remaining.

What had been a high scoring second half slowed down for the next 6:30 minutes with neither team scoring a goal. However, with 19 seconds remaining in the game, senior Nicole McKee scored her third goal of the game to give the Chargers a one-goal lead.

The Chargers preserved the lead and win the game 11-10.

On Saturday, April 5, the Chargers faced Saint Anselm who was undefeated and receiving votes in the rankings.

Once again, the Chargers found themselves in a back and forth game. With 4:32 minutes left in the game, the Hawks took a one-goal lead; their first lead since the middle of the first half.

Senior Marissa Fisher scored to tie things up, and later, with nine seconds left in the game, sophomore Courtney Ackland scored and put the Chargers on top.

Junior Kathryn Campbell won the next draw and scored one last goal in the final second to give UNH an 11-10 lead.
