Junior Emily Ryan and sophomore Chrissie DeMichele each tallied two goals, but the women's lacrosse team dropped its March 22 contest to the home Boston University Terriers, 11-6.
The Terriers opened an early advantage on a score by Kristen Abruzzese :37 seconds into the game. They extended the lead to 4-0 before sophomore Lauren Miller put a goal past the Terriers' goalkeeper.
BU then added to its lead with two more goals before the Eagles notched a pair of scores by senior Susan Pitt and Ryan. BU posted two more goals to hold an 8-3 halftime lead.
Boston College held the Terriers scoreless for the first 15 minutes of the second half and brought the score to within three, 8-5, with 20 minutes left on goals by Ryan and DeMichele.
DeMichele scored her final goal with 3:00 remaining in the game, but Boston College had already secured the victory.
Eagle goaltender Valerie Leuchs stopped a career-high 23 shots in the loss.
Boston College evened it record at 3-3 and will next travel to Monmouth on Saturday, March 25 at 11 a.m. in West Long Branch, N.J.
