SAINTS AND DANES
Saints shatter records in romp of Rider; secure massive win in MAAC opener.

Nothing was stopping the Siena women’s lacrosse team on a record-breaking day at Hickey Field Saturday afternoon.

Not the rain; not the sleet; not the snow. And certainly not MAAC newcomer Rider, as the Saints put together a masterful performance in a 22-4 trouncing to set a program record for the largest margin of victory in the 28-year history of the team.

The previous largest margin of victory had been 17 goals on two occasions. Sarah Irish’s goal with three seconds remaining pushed the lead to 18 to ensure that a new record would be set.
