THE REST OF THE STORY
•
Julia Daly,
Caroline Sullivan (Fairfield, Conn./Fairfield Ludlowe), and
Emily Crane (Upper Montclair, N.J./Montclair) rattled off a goal each within the first four minutes to stake the Bullets to a 3-0 lead. Turnovers for both teams resulted in another Gettysburg possession, and the Bullets scored six straight goals within the next four minutes to lead 9-0. Daly and
Jordan Basso each scored two in the stretch, while Sullivan and Crane each had one. With 1:50 remaining in the first period, Bryn Mawr got on the board with a Maddie Sullivan free position goal. However, Gettysburg followed up quickly with a goal by
Kelly O'Connor (Livingston, N.J./Livingston) to make it 10-1 after 15 minutes of play.
• Each team turned the ball over a few times and Gettysburg took several shots before a goal was scored in the second quarter. With 9:50 left to play in the half,
Julie Breedveld (Wayne, Pa./Radnor) netted an unassisted tally to start the running clock.
Maddie Passarello caused a turnover and picked up the ball soon after for another offensive possession, and
Lauren O'Connell (Winchester, Mass./Winchester) converted for a 12-1 Gettysburg lead. Passarello put up a tally of her own with 5:41 showing to make it a 12-goal lead. With under a minute remaining in the half, Basso took a second-chance shot and scored, sending the teams into halftime, 14-1.
• Two turnovers by Bryn Mawr and a ground ball pickup resulted in the Owls' first goal since the first quarter, as Camille Franklin dished to Maya DiFrischia. Several turnovers by each team filled the next six minutes, before freshmen
Nina Marra (Ridgewood, N.J./Ridgewood) and
Caroline Button (Moorestown, N.J./Moorestown) scored their first collegiate goals within two minutes of eachother. Button's goal at 3:50 would be the last of the period.
• In the final period of play, a yellow card and foul by Gettysburg gave Carlene Basque a free position shot, and she converted to make it a 16-3 game. Passarello scored again just over a minute later, and a turnover by Bryn Mawr allowed Daly to net another to make the score 18-3 with just over six minutes remaining. Bryn Mawr was fouled with 4:58 left to play, and Franklin scored on another free position attempt for the Owls' last goal of the game. With the seconds ticking down,
Sophie Smith (Great Falls, Va./Langley) sent a ball to
Sophie Showers (Larchmont, N.Y./Mamaroneck), who scored the final goal of the game.
