Lama Leads Loggers Past 'Cats, 19-11

McMINNVILLE, Ore. - The Puget Sound Loggers scored the first five goals of the game and the Linfield Wildcats couldn't answer back as the Loggers earned the 19-11 win in a NCAA Division III women's lacrosse match on Sunday afternoon in McMinnville, Ore.

Junior Sofia Lama (Laguna Niguel, Calif./Torrey Pines) gave the Loggers the lead just 41 seconds into the match and the Loggers added four more goals before Linfield was able to sneak one in.  After a brief 4-1 scoring run by the Wildcats, the Loggers scored three more goals before the halftime whistle as they held a 9-4 lead midway through the match.

In the second half, Linfield managed to keep it close for the first 15 minutes of the second half but the Loggers finished up the match with their regional rivals on a 6-1 scoring run as they collected their first win of 2010 by a final of 19-11.

The Loggers were led by six goals from Lama, who now has 10 goals on the season.  Senior Katie Schlesinger (Lake Oswego, Ore./Lakeridge) added five goals while Julia Schulman (Durham, N.C./Durham Academy) scored the first three goals of her collegiate career.  Junior Ana Calciano (Farmington, Conn./Miss Porter's School) got the win in net, making 10 saves.

Linfield was led by five goals from Mariah Jones.  Monique Schrieber and Anna Gorciak each added two in the loss.  Heidi Curry was solid in net despite allowing the 19 goals, making twelve saves to take the loss.

The Loggers make their home debut next Sunday when they play host to Birmingham Southern.
