The Worcester State University Lancers advance to the semifinal round in the MASCAC women's lacrosse tournament with 15-5 victory over the Massachusetts Maritime Academy Buccaneers.

The visiting Buccaneers got off to a quick two goal lead scoring on their first two shots of the game. The first was a free position shot by Nora McLaughlin. The second game from Grace Calvert goal, assisted by Cassie Llewellyn.

Worcester senior midfielder Julia Ravenelle would cut the lead in half just 15 seconds later on a Lily Gendron (Lakeville, MA) feed. Junior Emily Pavoni (Granby, MA), tied up the game with 19 seconds remaining in the first quarter and the Lancers never looked back.

Pavoni would score the first goal of the second quarter on a feed from senior attack Clare Conway (Billerica, MA). Then Conway notched one of her own on a pass from Ravenelle to cap off the Lancers four-goal run.

The Buccaneers tallied their 3^rd of the game in the 24^th-minute of play before Lancer's junior Shea Jarvis (Auburn, MA) scored back-to-back tallies for the home team. Gendron notched another before Conway added two more of her own.

Durgin cracked into the Lancer's scoring barrage for her 2^nd of the quarter, before the quarter closed the same way it started; on a goal from Pavoni.

The Lancers held the Buccaneers to a scoreless third quarter, while adding four more from Jarvis, Conway, Jarvis and Hannah Erickson (Dunstable, MA) to put Worcester up 14-4.

The final stanza was an even 1-1 tie, with a free position goal from Worcester's Bridget Smestad (Branford, CT) and McLaughlin's second of the night for the Buccaneers.
