Women's lacrosse drops second game, 17-6

JACKSON, Miss. - The Millsaps women's lacrosse team struggled to get thier offense going today, falling 17-6 to Tennessee Wesleyan at Harper Davis Field.

The Majors (0-2) scored the opening goal thirty seconds into the match thanks to an unassisted shot from J.B. Page. But, the Bulldogs (2-0) swept the rest of the half, scoring eleven unanswered goals before the end of the first half.

From that point on, it was all the Majors could do to keep the game out of the mercy rule. The second half was much closer, 6-5 to TWC, but the Majors could not climb out of the first half hole.

Haleigh Williams scored three goals on the day for the Majors on four shots. Kenya Strong-Johnston and Claire Stamm added one goal each along with the opening goal from Page to round out the Major offense on the day. Michelle Scannell led all scorers with four goals on eight shots.

Madelyn Walker played the full 60 in goal, collecting 12 saves and allowing 17. The Bulldogs outshot Millsaps 33-14.

The Majors will take to the road next week as they travel over to Birmingham-Southern for a neutral site game with the Agnes Scott Scotties at 2:00 p.m. in Panther Stadium.
