The Stony Brook women’s lacrosse team dominated in all aspects of the game to secure a 20-5 victory over the Vermont Catamounts on March 26 at LaValle Stadium.

Defensively, Avery Hines notched a team-high five caused turnovers and four ground balls. In net, Natalia Altebrando got the start and notched four saves in the first half. Francesca Viteritti and Hannah Hudson split time in the second half, collecting a save apiece.

HOW IT HAPPENED

The Seawolves took control of the game early with a 4-0 scoring run courtesy of Caporuscio, Alexandra Fusco, and Wilmoth. Vermont then responded with a pair of their own before Stony Brook tacked on another two as Caporuscio notched her fifth hat trick of the season.

Not unfamiliar to the Seawolves, the second quarter began with another run, this time with seven straight goals and a shutout of the Catamounts. Wilmoth would collect a hat trick of her own, the seventh multi-goal game of the season for the graduate transfer.

Stony Brook came out of the break right where they left off, scoring three straight within only five minutes of play. Vermont then responded with one of their own for their third of the contest.

The Seawolves exploded offensively outscoring the Catmounts 7-3 through the second half. After Vermont got another on the board, the Stony Brook squad proceeded to answer back with a trio of goals with a pair of firsts from Angela Beardsley and Roksana Debicka. Vermont scored their fifth and final goal of the game with only 53 seconds remaining as the Seawolves secured the dub and earned their seventh win of the season.
