ROCHESTER, NY – Salisbury University’s women’s lacrosse team watched their championship hopes slip away Friday evening in a heartbreaking 5-4 defeat to Wesleyan University Cardinals during NCAA semifinal action.
The Sea Gulls, who entered the contest as the tournament’s second seed, couldn’t overcome the third-seeded Cardinals in what became a defensive battle at Judson Stadium on the RIT campus. The narrow one-goal margin brought an end to Salisbury’s impressive season run.
Both teams struggled to find offensive rhythm in the tightly contested matchup, with neither squad able to pull away decisively throughout the game.
