The Rockhurst women's lacrosse team (6-5, 3-1 RMAC) hosts the seventh-ranked Regis Rangers Saturday at Bourke Field at 1:00 p.m.
The Hawks were lights out in a 27-0 win over Adams State in their previous game on March 18.
Logan Derosia (32 goals on the season),
Marianna Anderson (30 goals) and Hanna Miller (27 goals) lead a potent offensive attack for Coach
Molly McCourt's squad.
Hanna Meek and
Bunga Spencer continue to lead the Hawks defensively. The trio of Meek, Spencer and
Audrey Ford has combined to cause 39 turnovers this season.
Maddi Scheipeter has been key for Rockhurst on draw controls, tallying a team-high 45.
The Rangers have an impressive resume expected of a top 10 team in the country, as they enter Saturday's contest with a perfect 9-0 record (2-0 in RMAC play). Those nine wins include two vs. other nationally-ranked programs, Grand Valley State and Tampa. Regis has scored 15 or more goals in eight of its nine games this season.
Saturday's game will have a big impact in the RMAC race. At 3-0, Lindenwood currently sits atop the standings, while Regis (2-0) and Rockhurst (3-1) are right in the mix in second and third place.
