ThecLoyola game in NCAA is a very tough matchup for the stags to win. A friend of mine who has two grandchildren who are starters at SHU and at HC womens lax has seen both FF and LC play in person vs his granddaughters teams. He indicated that LC is at a much high level then FF.
However, as we have seen in the mens hoop tournament any thing is possible. The stags lax team is a veteran squad and is hungry from their close loss last year to Syracuse in the NCAA opening round. Whatever happens the womens lax program , winners of five MAAC championships under coach Fields is a solid program.

The women under Fields have built a solid program! Basically what we hoped the men would do. Anything is possible come tourney time. Would be great to see them knock off the Greyhounds!

Lost 11-6. Nice second half. The Loyola keeper just dominated. Stopped a bunch of point blank shots. She was the difference.

Stags just need a little bit more to get up with the very top teams.

 Stags outscore Loyola 5-3 in the second half after being down 1-8 at halftime. "I think we played well in moments, but we had 30 minutes in the first half where we were hesitant. And when you spot a quick lead to a phenomenal team like Loyola, it's difficult to rebound and come out of that hole," said Head Coach Laura Field. "But I'm really proud of the way we changed the game within the game. This is where our senior leadership came into play. When you feel nervous, sometimes you play nervous. But when you play like there's nothing to lose, often times you also play like there's nothing to lose, and that makes a big difference.""What I'll remember about this these seniors and graduate students are the steps that we've taken together, and how they are helping our program transform," said Field of her 16 underclassmen. "They bought in, are they have set the tone for what we want to be."Box Scorefairfieldstags.com/sports/womens-lacrosse/stats/2023/loyola-maryland/boxscore/13397Stag Women's Lacrosse ends the season at (14-5)(7-1) with their 5th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. Not bad, not bad at all. |
