The women’s lacrosse squad extended its win streak to seven by picking up a pair of wins this weekend to improve to 9-1 overall.

Junior Jill Remenapp led the way in a 20-4 blowout win over Saint Mary’s College, recording eight points on three goals and five assists. Twelve players got points in the win.

After trading initial goals, the Pioneers rallied off 15 straight goals to put the game out of reach.
Senior Meredith Harris led the Pioneers to their nail-biting 10-9 victory over George Washington University on Friday, recording a hat trick and two assists for a total of five points in last Friday’s win.

At halftime, Denver had a 6-3 lead but was quickly contested after George Washington scored at the start of the second half.

In the final eight minutes, George Washington scored three goals to make Denver’s lead only one point with 34 seconds remaining.

George Washington gained possession off the final draw control, but junior Pioneer defender Ali Proehl forced a turnover to give Denver the ball for the remainder of the game. Denver is currently ranked No. 1 in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation conference (MPSF) and No. 34 nationally.

Five home games remain for the Pioneers this season. The first round of the MPSF tournament will begin on Thursday, May 1 at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium.
