Women's Lacrosse Qualifies For NCAA Championships
After another successful regular season (12-1), the women's lacrosse team was selected for the 26-team NCAA Championship field on Monday. CMS will play a first round game at Cortland State on Wednesday, May 6 at 4:00 pm.
CMS has now qualified for the NCAA Championships three straight years. Last year, CMS hosted a first round game against Ohio Wesleyan University and won 19-17. They advanced to play at College of New Jersey losing 12-3. If they win on Wednesday, they will again play at College of New Jersey. That game will be on Saturday, May 9 at 11:30.
The team is led by the scoring trio of sophomore Sarah Dick
[Beverly, MA] (41 goals), senior Courtney Cronin [Madison, CT] (41
goals) and junior Colbi Brawner [Bainbridge Island, WA] (40 goals).
These three combine for over half the team's goals. Junior Devon
Scott [Portland, OR] leads the team in assists (17) and draw
controls (35). Sophomore Cori Solomon [Washington, DC] leads the
team in ground balls (24) and shares the team lead in caused
turnovers (15) with Brawner. Cronin is a two-time First Team
All-West Region selection while Brawner and Scott were Second Team
All-West Region selections last year.
Sarah Queener is the program's winningest coach with 40 career
wins vs. only six losses (.897). CMS, now in its seventh varsity
season, is 84-22 (.792) all-time.
