PITTSBURGH, Pa. - The Bethany College women's lacrosse team hung tough for three periods, but ultimately fell to LaRoche Tuesday, 11-9, in non-conference action.
LaRoche took control of the game almost immediately after Bethany claimed its first lead, 6-5, in the third period. The Redhawks scored five of the next six goals to take a three-goal lead.
The teams alternated goals, scoring three each, through the first 20 minutes of the contest. LaRoche took the lead with a pair of goals before the Bison retaliated with a pair to tie the game at half.
Bethany took its only lead with a goal more than six minutes into the third, but the aforementioned goal barrage lifted LaRoche.
Bethany (0-3) hosts Ursuline 4 p.m. Friday.
