BOX SCORE

ASTON, Pa.- The Immaculata women's lacrosse team (8-6, 4-3 CSAC) faced their second tough road test of the week and fell behind 12-4 at halftime on their way to a 20-10 defeat at the hands of Neumann (13-4, 7-1 CSAC).  Junior Katie Cook (4 DCs) was the top scorer for Immaculata with six points on four goals and two assists.
 
Freshman Kelly Lapp had three goals on the day as the only other multi-goal scorer in the game for IU.  Junior Amanda Grahn, sophomore Danielle Lopez (4 DCs), and freshman Allison Jakavick scored one goal apiece for the Mighty Macs.
 
Freshman Shannon Neill and junior Caitlin Caruso each tallied an assist, while senior Megan Chacosky scooped up four groundballs.
 
Junior Nicole Behrndt had eight saves overall and a team-high six groundballs.
 
Just like against Cabrini on Tuesday, the Mighty Macs scored first, this time with Jakavick picking up the tally.  However, the Knights scored the next four goals to take a 4-1 lead.  Grahn and Lapp scored two of the next three goals to bring the Mighty Macs within 5-3, but that's the closest they would get the rest of the way.
 
Neumann would score seven of the final eight goals of the first half with Lapp picking up the lone Mighty Mac goal as the Knights took a 12-4 advantage to the locker room.
 
Cook would net all four of her goals in the second half, but Immaculata was unable to get closer than seven goals at 15-8.
 
Immaculata will look to snap their two-game losing streak when they host Notre Dame on Monday afternoon at 4 p.m. for Senior Night.
 
The Mighty Macs have already clinched a playoff spot and will be playing for a home game in the opening round.
