Women's Lacrosse Outlasts Siena in OT Thriller

The Army West Point women's lacrosse team outlasted Siena, 17-16, in overtime Saturday at Michie Stadium. The Black Knights improved to 4-2 on the season, while the Saints fell to 0-3. Army scored the first seven goals of the game, including four in the first four-and-a-half-minutes. Rookie Rilee Scott caged the game's first two tallies before senior co-captain Amy Johnston recorded a hat trick throughout the first 15 minutes of the contest. She capped the milestone with a woman-up tally with 15:33 remaining in the opening period to hand the Black Knights a seven-goal edge. The tides turned from there, however, as Siena netted three-consecutive goals prior to the eight-minute mark. With the score at 7-3, an unexpected stoppage forced the players, coaches and spectators to evacuate Michie Stadium for roughly 30 minutes. The Saints were unfazed by the delay as they put another shot into the cage to make it a 7-4 game. Read More
