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.”

Boston College draws a first-round matchup against Fairfield Friday afternoon.
Welcome to the Gameday Guide.
Every weekend during the college lacrosse season, USA Lacrosse Magazine staff will riff here on the juiciest matchups, trendiest topics, biggest storylines and hottest takes.
It’s NCAA tournament time.
The first round of NCAA Division I women’s lacrosse tournament begins today at noon. The bracketology is finished and the predictions can be thrown right out the window. With 13 games sprinkled throughout the day, we’re sure to see an upset or two (or three?) on our way to determine second-round matchups.
“Obviously we get a lot of the attention, but in my opinion, we have nine All-Americans on the offense,” Ament said in between signing autographs on a frigid afternoon last February after he set the Penn State career points record during a 19-10 win at Villanova Stadium. “We ve got a lot of talent, and it’s really fun when everybody gets in the scoring column.”
Penn State returns veteran depth at almost every position. Midfielders Jack Kelly and Jack Traynor both registered double-digit goals in 2020. Kneese has started between the pipes since he was a true freshman. Arceri, an All-American faceoff specialist, ranked best in the Big Ten in ground balls per game last spring and set the program career record. TJ Malone, who is listed at attack but ran out of the midfield most the past two years and, like Ament, attended The Haverford School (Pa), scored nine goals in the final two games of 2020 alone.
