There was that one stretch when the Tigers closed the lead--to 5-4 I think--that it looked like the game might get interesting, but other than that, it was a pretty dominant performance. Aside from a few self-inflicted turnovers, NU played very well throughout, and HilBo's return to the lineup had to provide a boost.

Danielle Spencer was indeed incredible. If she wasn't flipping a draw perfectly into Hannah Nielsen's stick, she was popping it straight up and using her height, reach, and skill to snare it herself. The draw control advantage turned what would have been a hard-fought game into a relatively easy win. 

And Katrina Dowd is really in the zone. 

What a beautiful day for a lakeside Lacrosse game--crystal clear skies, warm sun, a cool breeze, and a big crowd on hand.
