ORANGE, Calif. – The Chapman University women's lacrosse team fell 21-6 to No. 22 Pomona-Pitzer on Wednesday on Wilson Field. Mei-Lani Ferreira and Jessica Ricketts combined to score five goals for the Panthers.
The Sagehens, who had given up just seven goals combined in their first three matches, jumped on top early. Fiona Lewis had a hat trick in the first few minutes and the Panthers trailed 9-1 after the first quarter.
Despite Pomona-Pitzer scoring 21 goals, Anna Hereu made 12 saves in the contest. Ricketts picked up seven draw controls and Liv Huntley-Robertson caused a pair of turnovers.
