Elon Women’s Club Lacrosse participated in the Yosef Classic Tournament held at Appalachian State University from Oct. 24-25, playing against ECU, UNCC and ASC.
Elon Women’s Club Lacrosse came into the Yosef Classic Tournament losing the first game to ECU 10-9. They came back strong in the second game against UNCC with a 17-6 win.
The team continued to win 6-3 and then 6-2 both against ASU. Those wins brought them to the championship game vs. ECU. Elon’s women fought strong against a tough opponent but were still down 10-9 with one minute left. The attack and midfielders worked together to put one more goal in the back of the net to tie.
Elon’s defense then proved strong enough to stop ECU from scoring, which led to a brave heart overtime. This is where one player from each team goes against each other and the first to score wins. Meghan Dyer was selected as Elon’s one player. She won the draw and sprinted to the cage. She shot and scored the winning goal. Elon was the champions of the tournament, leaving with a record of 4-1.
