Rookie goalie Hannah Slomkowski broke the Army West Point Women's Lacrosse program saves record, but it was not enough as the Black Knights fell 15-8 to Lehigh on Saturday afternoon at Michie Stadium. The rookie from Baltimore, Md., stopped 13 shots in less than 43 minutes of action in relief, breaking the previous mark of 12 held by Kayla Rowley (vs. Lafayette on March 18, 2017) and Maddie Burns (at Colgate on April 19, 2017). The visitors opened the game with a 4-0 run, but a pair of goals by Manuela Cortes provided an answer by Army to cut the deficit in half. Lehigh responded with two goals in the next two minutes, however, including a tally 45 seconds later to push its edge back to four goals. The two sides traded goals over the next four minutes before the Mountain Hawks earned two in a span of 32 seconds around the eight-minute mark to take a 9-4 lead into the break. The deficit could have been much greater for the Black Knights if not for Slomkowski's five free-position stops in the opening period. Read More
