EWING, NJ – Salisbury University’s nationally top-ranked women’s lacrosse team found themselves in unfamiliar territory Saturday afternoon, trailing by their biggest margin of the season against a ranked opponent.
But the Sea Gulls responded in dominant fashion, blanking 12th-ranked TCNJ for the game’s final 39 minutes while rattling off six consecutive goals to secure a 6-4 victory in the top-20 matchup at TCNJ’s Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex.
The comeback victory marked a significant test for Salisbury’s perfect season, as they faced their most challenging deficit to date before turning the tide completely in their favor.
The Sea Gulls’ defensive unit completely stifled the Lions’ offense for more than half the game, while their attack found its rhythm to pull away for the road win.
