Women’s Lacrosse Defeats William & Mary 19-7

WASHINGTON – The Georgetown women's lacrosse team (2-2) captured a dominating 19-7 victory over William & Mary (1-2) on Saturday evening. The Hoyas were led by graduate student Hanna Bishop with 10 points (4G, 6A).

  • Dawson recorded her second goal of the evening 29 seconds into the fourth quarter. GU went on another scoring run of five goals to close out the game, including two goals from Bishop and Ryan Kinkead and Sydney Richter's first goal as a Hoya.
