Women's Lacrosse Takes Down George Fox
The University of Redlands women's lacrosse team (5-1) never trailed in their 13-7 road win over Oregon’s George Fox University Saturday as they finished their Oregon trip undefeated.
Senior Emily Webster extended her goal scoring streak to 24 games, third longest streak in program history, in the first 70 seconds. In what was a low-scoring first quarter, sophomore Gwenyth Guico's goal with 1:36 remaining was only the second score as the two sides ended the first 15 minutes with the Bulldogs in front 2-0.

Goalie Courtney Myers had 10 saves.
At the 11:33 mark of the second sophomore April Bryant made it 3-0 with an unassisted goal. That was then followed by the first two Bruin goals to cut the lead to one, 3-2, with 8:45 left in the half.
Webster, though, went on a personal 2-0 run to give Redlands a 5-2 lead after 30 minutes of action.
The lead remained was four, 7-3, after Bryant set up sophomore Sophia Rangel on a player up goal and junior Maya Weaver found senior Jacqueline Landucci for another player advantage goal with 12:41 on the clock in the third.
Senior Catie Ramicone reestablished the four-goal advantage in the fourth, but the next two goals went to GFU as the lead was only two, 9-7, with 6:56 to play.
The Bulldogs, however, did not concede again and their offense woke up, scoring four times in the final 5:43 after only scoring four goals over the previous 22 minutes.
The four goals came from Webster, Rangel, Senior Cailin Walker, and Bryant.
Sophomore Courtney Myers had a big game in goal with 10 saves and five ground balls. Fellow sophomore Sophia Simonds had three caused turnovers and four ground balls. Junior Ella Batarse led the team with three draw controls and added a caused turnover.
Scoring wise Webster had five goals, Bryant two with one assist, Rangel had a pair, and each of Landucci, Ramicone, Guico, and Walker added one.
The Bulldogs return to California to play No. 13 Pomona-Pitzer on Wednesday, March 11 at 7 p.m. in Claremont.
