WESTON, Mass. –  The Regis College women's lacrosse team secured a 16-6 Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) play-in victory on Thursday, at Regis Stadium.

Audrey Mason (West Springfield, Mass.) led the Pride with six goals and one assist, followed by Molly Higgins (Weymouth, Mass.) with four goals, and Serenity Ayala (North Brookfield, Mass.) with three goals and one assist.

Retta Hatin (Hooksett, N.H.) scooped up six ground balls for Regis. On defense, four members of the Pride finished with two caused turnovers. In net, Daniela Mazo (Bridgeport, Conn.) made 14 saves off 20 shots to improve her record to 3-6. 

How it Happened:

  • Regis struck first when Mason connected with Teal Galligan (Acushnet, Mass.) on a pass from the left side, slipping it past the goalie for an early lead. USJ responded quickly to even the score at 1-1. The teams traded goals once more, heading into the second quarter tied at 2-2.
  • Retta Hatin opened the second quarter with a breakaway goal to give the Pride the lead. Shortly after, another scoring duo extended the margin to three. Regis kept the momentum going with five unanswered goals, taking a commanding 8-2 lead into halftime.
  • Less than a minute into the third quarter, the Blue Jays capitalized on a man-up opportunity to cut the lead to five. Alana Picard followed with another goal, narrowing the gap further. Regis answered with five straight goals to push the lead to 13-4, before USJ managed to score again with just over a minute left in the quarter. Regis held a 13-5 advantage heading into the fourth.
  • Higgins kicked off the final quarter with a man-up goal, and Mason followed to push the lead to 15-5, activating the running clock with a 10-goal margin.
  • The Blue Jays added one more, but Higgins responded again on a man-up play, sealing the 16-6 win for the Pride.

Inside the Numbers:

  • Mason broke a season high record with six goals and one assist in today's game, while surpassing 40 goals for the season.
  • Five players contributed one or more goal.
  • Nine players caused one or more turnovers.
