The Albright College women's lacrosse team led at halftime against Lebanon Valley, who is receiving votes in the national poll, before the Dutchmen pulled away after the break for a 16-8 final.

Trailing 5-4 with under three minutes before the break, sophomore Amanda Smith led Albright to a surprise halftime lead. She picked up the rebound after Rebecca Sartorio was saved, and scored with 2:22 on the clock to tie the game at 5-all.

Smith finished with team-highs in goals (four), ground balls (three), draw controls (eight) and caused turnovers (two). Sartorio scored twice, with Erin Farrell and Marian Cullen adding one each.

LVC held Albright to just one goal in the second half, tying it up on Mel Modrick's tally with 25:53 remaining and going ahead for good on Sam Boyce's goal a minute-and-a-half later.
