ARNOLD, Maryland - The MCC women's lacrosse team survived a second-half rally to defeat host Anne Arundel 23-13 Monday evening.
The Tribunes (6-0) led by six at the break before the Riverhawks rattled off three straight to cut the lead in half with 24:27 to play. Janee DeLuca then scored twice in a row and Taylor Excell added a free position goal to restore a six-goal lead.
Monroe closed out the game by scoring four straight over the final 5:42 to put it away.
The first half was a hotly-contested affair. The teams battled back and forth, and a pair of scores from Anne Arundel tied the game at five with 12:33 to play. But MCC responded with an 8-2 run down the stretch to take a 13-7 lead into the locker room.
Incredibly, eight different players found the back of the net during the run. DeLuca and Kendall Jones were responsible for a goal and an assist apiece.
