Women's Lacrosse Falls To Georgetown, 10-4
May 13, 2001
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The No. 3 Georgetown University Hoyas, propelled by four goals apiece from senior All-American attacker Sheehan Stanwick (Baltimore, Md./Notre Dame Academy) and senior midfielder Sarah Oglesby (Baltimore, Md./St. Paul's), handed No. 6 North Carolina a 10-4 loss today on Kehoe Field in quarterfinal action of the NCAA Division I Women's Lacrosse Tournament. The Hoyas, this year's BIG EAST Champions, improve to 16-2 and advance to the Final Four for the fist time in school history. North Carolina finishes the 2001 season with an 11-6 overall record and a 1-2 mark in Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) play. The Hoyas' offense put seven points on the scoreboard while the defense stepped up to hold the Tar Heels scoreless in the first half. Stanwick notched all four of her goals in the first period. She tallied the first goal of the game on a free position shot just 1:56 into the contest. Oglesby also took advantage of a free position shot at 27:36 to go up 2-0. Stanwick then fired off three-straight goals to push the score to 5-0. Sophomore attacker Kate Ahearn (Baltimore, Md./St. Paul's) netted GU's sixth goal of the day off a free position shot at 6:49. The last goal of the first half came from junior attacker Erin Elbe (Garden City, N.Y./Garden City), who found the back of the net with 4:01 on the clock to give Georgetown a 7-0 lead at the intermission. Oglesby opened the scoring of the second half with an unassisted tally at 28:55. North Carolina's Christine McPike recorded the Tar Heels first goal of the day at 28:42 to make the score 8-1. Oglesby raced down the field, fired from the right side, and scored to make it 9-1 in favor of the Hoyas, but the UNC offense came roaring back with three-consecutive goals to cut GU's lead to five (9-4). North Carolina's Kellie Thompson registered back-to-back goals at 26:35 and 16:40, respectively, and Brooke Young added the third at 15:45. It was Oglesby who wrapped up the scoring on the afternoon with an unassisted goal with only 3:57 left in the game to give Georgetown a 10-4 victory. Senior All-American Bowen Holden (Lincoln, Mass./Lincoln-Sudbury) was sensational in goal for the Hoyas. Holden rejected 15 Tar Heel shots on the day while giving up just four goals. North Carolina junior goalkeeper Melissa Coyne posted two saves and allowed all 10 GU goals. Georgetown outshot Carolina 20-17, caused five more turnovers (12-7), and held a 21-20 edge in ground balls. The Hoyas also won nine draws to the Tar Heels' seven. The Hoyas will take on the winner of the Duke/Loyola game on Friday, May 18, at 8:30 p.m. at Homewood Field, located on the Johns Hopkins' campus in Baltimore, Md.
