Skidmore downed by Clarkson in road matchup

POTSDAM, NY – The Skidmore College women's lacrosse team suffered a 14-10 defeat at Clarkson to wrap up the weekend road trip on Saturday afternoon.

The Thoroughbreds (6-9, 3-6 Liberty League) took a narrow halftime lead off a first half hat trick from senior Lily Schwartzman, but a furious nine-goal second half scoring burst from the Golden Knights (9-6, 3-5 Liberty League) ultimately proved to be the difference as Clarkson pulled away late.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Thoroughbreds had a strong start to the game with a pair of solo goals from senior Jillian Lockwood and Schwartzman to take an early 2-0 lead.
  • After Clarkson responded with a pair of goals to tie things up, Skidmore fired back with two more scores off the sticks of Schwartzman and junior Julia Cafasso to take a 4-2 lead at the end of one quarter.
  • In the second period, the Thoroughbreds countered a trio of goals from the Golden Knights with two goals by junior Lily Hudner and Schwartzman to give Skidmore a narrow 6-5 lead entering halftime.
  • It was all Clarkson in the third quarter, as the home team scored five unanswered goals to start off the frame and limited the Thoroughbreds to a lone goal from Lockwood in the final minutes of the quarter. The Golden Knights took a 10-7 lead into the final period of play.
  • In the fourth, Clarkson built on the lead with two early goals to push the lead to five goals, 12-7, before freshman Keara Battagliese stopped the momentum with a solo score.
  • However, the Golden Knights pulled away for good by scoring another two runs to take a 14-8 lead.
  • Lockwood scored twice more in the final minutes of the game for Skidmore.
STANDOUT THOROUGHBREDS
  • Lockwood finished with a team-high four goals to go with a groundball.
  • Schwartzman recorded a hat trick and reached a milestone of 100 career goals in the process.
  • Senior Elizabeth Walsh secured four draw controls to go with one caused turnover and one groundball.
  • Sophomore Charlotte Taylor finished with four draw controls, three caused turnovers and two groundballs.
  • Sophomore Tessa Snyder recorded three caused turnovers to go with two draw controls and two groundballs.
