The 52nd straight America East win for the No. 6-ranked Stony Brook women’s lacrosse team was a sweet one. One of the most talented senior classes in Stony Brook history wrapped up their final regular season with a dominating 18-7 win over the UMBC Retrievers on Saturday, May 1 at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium.
With the game tied up after seven minutes of back-and-forth action, graduate midfielder Ally Kennedy kicked off a seven-goal run that saw the Seawolves rob UMBC of any momentum it had with the early tie. The eight-time defending America East regular season champions stormed their way to an 11-3 lead going into the half after graduate attacker Taryn Ohlmiller scored her fourth goal of the day on a tightrope-walking goal with only one second left. Senior attacker Rebecca Kinsley contributed to the score with her third assist on the day.
