For about a quarter and a half on Wednesday night, Stony Brook was executing the perfect game plan to attack the Syracuse zone and put themselves in position to ultimately pull the upset.
And as they have done time and again this season, the Syracuse Orange women’s lacrosse team eventually put a stop to those best-laid plans by asserting authority through their overwhelming depth of talent.
The result was a 16-11 Syracuse win over the No. 6 Stony Brook Seawolves that improved ‘Cuse’s best start ever to 10-0 and earned them their sixth win over a Top-15 team and fourth win against a Top-10 team.
