The Golden Eagles had three seniors tally hat tricks in the season finale
MILWAUKEE – The Marquette University women's lacrosse team fell to Georgetown, 17-10, in the BIG EAST Championship Semifinals at Valley Fields on Thursday night.
Â
Marquette (9-9, 3-2 BIG EAST) closes its 2019 season with the setback. Fittingly, the Golden Eagles were led by an all-senior scoring effort tonight.
Three seniors had three goals each as Grace Gabriel, Lindsey Willcocks and graduate student Charlotte McGuire each notched hat tricks. Cate Soccodato added in a goal to round out the scoring margin for Marquette.
Â
Gabriel scored the Golden Eagles' first two goals of the game, once to tie it and another to bring her team within one. Georgetown (10-8, 3-2 BIG EAST) had two separate three-goal spurts to secure their lead, which they never lost from the 24:52 mark of the first half.Â
Â
The Hoyas were led by Gabriel's BIG EAST Co-Midfielder of the Year recipient Francesca Whitehurst with eight points, including six goals.
Â
Marquette's Jules Horning collected 10 saves to the Hoyas' Haelle Chomo's seven.
Â
Georgetown owned the draw control circle 17-13 as well as the edge in ground balls, 21-11.
Â
The Golden Eagles wrap up their 2019 season, but not without setting numerous records and milestones, including the team's second postseason appearance in as many years, the program's highest-ever seed in the conference tournament and Marquette's first win over a top-25 opponent.
