Salisbury wins the 2021 DIII women s lacrosse championship
Salisbury is the 2021 Division III women s lacrosse champion. The Sea Gulls defeated Tufts 14-13 to win their fourth title in 12 years. Tufts Catherine Lawless led all scorers with four goals, but it wasn t enough as Salisbury had five different players produce a multi-goal game.
After a wild opening 30 minutes, the second half was very similar to a repeat of the first. Salisbury struck in the opening minute of the period, one of three quick goals scored by Camryn Pepper, Delaney Hill and Lauren Valenti that put the Sea Gulls up 9-6. For the second straight half, Tufts did a great job of responding to the early offensive barrage. Once again it was Games and Lawliss coming through for the Jumbos, trimming the deficit to one.

This is Salisbury s fourth national championship in 20 years.
Mary Claire Hisle only had four saves, but the Salisbury goalie’s steal with 1:13 left allowed the Sea Gulls women’s lacrosse team to run out the clock and win the Division III national championship 14-13 over Tufts on Sunday at Kerr Stadium in Salem, Va.
“I’m so happy,” Hisle said. “I’m so happy that we were able to get a win for our seniors because these guys have been amazing all season, motivating us and keeping us working toward our goal and we did that. We got our goal.”
