Eagles Fall To Furman In Dramatic Fashion

ROCK HILL, S.C. – The Winthrop lacrosse program made a valiant comeback on Senior Day against Furman, but an overtime goal from the Paladins dealt the Eagles a heartbreaking defeat.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Paladins struck first with two goals in the first quarter
  • Claire Witmer scored to cut the margin to one shortly thereafter
  • Three more goals from Furman staked the visitors to a 5-1 lead heading into the second period
  • The teams traded goals before a Savanah Paton score sliced the lead to 7-5
  • The Paladins seemed to have all the momentum with three more goals, but a Lauren Asher score just before halftime stemmed the tide
  • The Eagles scored twice out of the locker room to keep the margin at two
  • Furman extended the lead to 14-9 in the third quarter, but Witmer and Paton cut the lead to 14-11 with one stanza to play
  • Angelo, Witmer, and Molly Dankowski scored in the fourth period to get the game into overtime
  • The Paladins used a goal just less than a minute into overtime to take the victory
NOTABLES
