4/22/2023 8:57:00 PM | Women's Lacrosse
EMMITSBURG, Md. — The Quinnipiac University women's lacrosse team will host the MAAC Quarterfinals, earning home field with its 5-4 win over Mount St. Mary's on Saturday afternoon.
After six minutes were played after the initial 1:00 start time and a 1-0 Bobcat advantage thanks to Mia Delmond, the game was delayed due to lightning for close to three hours, as the game resumed at 5 p.m. Eastern.
The Bobcat defense forced 21 Mount St. Mary's and nine failed clears, as Kat Henselder made a game-clinching save with 11 seconds remaining to earn the victory.
Quinnipiac had five different goalscorers, with the game winner coming with 23 seconds left in the third as Sophia Iaccino potted the fifth goal of the night of an assist from Desiree Kleberg.
The netminder Henselder made 12 saves on 16 Mount shots on goal.
STATS AND NOTES
The Bobcats will host Canisius in the MAAC Quarterfinals on Sunday, April 30 at the QU Lacrosse Stadium.
