Women's Lax Shuts Out Virginia Wesleyan

Hornets Post Eighth Shutout of Lutz Era

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – Shenandoah University posted the eighth women's lacrosse shutout of the Lindsey Lutz era with a 21-0 ODAC victory at Virginia Wesleyan Saturday afternoon.
 
Shenandoah (2-4, 2-0 ODAC) held Virginia Wesleyan (0-7, 0-2) to just three shots in posting its first shutout since blanking Sweet Briar, 19-0, on Apr. 22, 2017.

IN BRIEF

Freshman Reilly Cisar gave the Hornets all of the offense they would need by converting a feed from Natalie Nichols at 21:06, but SU was far from finished.
 
Cisar's goal, one of three she had on the day, started a run in which Shenandoah would score nine more goals in the next 10:48 of game time.
 
The 10-goal margin kicked in the running clock, and SU continued to keep up the pressure. The Hornets scored three more goals in the first half to take a 13-0 lead into the break.
 
Cisar scored the opening goal of the second, this time off of an Emma Stiffler just 25 seconds in, and Shenandoah coasted home to the shutout victory.
 
Eight different women scored goals in the game with Stiffler and Alyson Bittinger notching four each.
 
Stiffler also had a team-high three assists.
 
SU had a 44-3 edge in shots, scooped up 27 of the game's 42 groundballs and won 18 of 23 draws.

NOTABLE

  • The Hornets other shutouts in Lutz' 13+ seasons at the helm of the program have come versus Hollins (3x), Sweet Briar (2x), Ferrum, and Hope.
  • In both the 2012 and 2014 seasons, SU recorded two shutouts.

UP NEXT

Shenandoah hosts nationally-ranked Washington & Lee on Thursday at 7 p.m.
