WLax comes up short again against John Hopkins

It was the same story once again for the women’s lacrosse team when they came up short against No. 17 John Hopkins on National Marquette Day, 12-10.

Marquette and John Hopkins continued the pair’s closely contested games Saturday afternoon. The last two seasons saw John Hopkins win by a combined 19-15 advantage, including a double-overtime thriller in 2015. Saturday Marquette was once again unable to get over that hump.

“Its disappointing but they’re and experienced team, they’ve won a lot and have that confidence,” head coach Meredith Black said.

The first half was a defensive battle.
