DISNEY, Fla. – Amy Farrell (Ambler, PA/Upper
Dublin) scored with 1:12 remaining to break a 9-all
tie and lift eighth-ranked Gettysburg over No. 7 Mary Washington
10-9 in non-conference women’s lacrosse action on Monday.
Farrell finished with three goals for
her second consecutive hat trick, helping the Bullets (2-0)
defeat the Eagles (0-1) for the third consecutive season.
Megan Murphy (Wilton, CT/Wilton) scored five
goals and added two assists, giving her eight goals and 15
points in her first two games this year.
Kate Clute scored two goals
and dished out three assists for Mary Washington, an NCAA
Final Four squad each of the past two years, while Britt
Gottlieb added two goals and two assists in the losing
effort.
The Eagles stormed to a 3-0 advantage
in the first 11 minutes, 32 seconds of the first half before
Murphy scored her first two goals of the game to pull Gettysburg
within 3-2.
With the Bullets trailing 4-2, Murphy
found the net a third time, then set up Farrell’s first goal
to knot the game at 4. Murphy struck again to make it 5-4
and Kathy Delauney (Lutherville, MD/Roland Park Country
School) followed with her second goal of the year
to give Gettysburg a two-goal lead.
The Bullets didn’t trail the rest of
the way, but a pair of Mary Washington goals knotted the game
at 9 down the stretch. With the teams heading for their second
overtime game in the last three years, Murphy set up Farrell
on the game-winner with 72 ticks left in regulation.
With her five-goal outburst, Murphy moved
into eighth place on the program’s all-time goal-scoring list
