Martello's Fourth Quarter Tally Pushes BC to Sixth Straight Title Game
May 26, 2023 | Lacrosse
Jenn Medjid scores five goals; BC will take on Northwestern on Sunday, May 28 at noon
CARY, N.C. -- Boston College will advance to its sixth consecutive National Title game, downing second-seeded Syracuse, 8-7, tonight in the national semifinals of the 2023 NCAA Women's Lacrosse Championship.
BC - the No. 3 seed - will take on top-seeded Northwestern on Sunday, May 28 at noon. Â The game will air live on ESPN.
Kayla Martello put BC ahead for the first time with 3:31 left in the fourth quarter, finding the back of the goal off the 8-meter. Jenn Medjid led BC with five goals - including two tallies to start the fourth quarter - tying the match the 9:12 to play, setting up Martello's go-ahead score.
Syracuse scored the first three goals of the contest, taking a 3-0 lead less than 10 minutes into the match. Â Jenn Medjid got BC on the scoreboard first, taking a pass from McKenna Davis with 8:44 to play in the quarter. Â Cassidy Weeks made it s 3-2 game less than three minutes later and it remained that way through the first 15 minutes.
Andrea Reynolds' free position goal with less than eight minutes left in the first half made it 3-3. Â Syracuse tallied the next goal, man-up, but BC returned the favor, as Medjid converted a goal as the maroon & gold held a player advantage. Â The two teams took the halftime break tied, 3-3.
Syracuse took a two-goal lead to start the second half before Medjid registered her hat trick, again taking a pass from Davis, making it a one-goal deficit at 6-5 with 3:29 left in the third quarter. Â Syracuse would tack on another goal with 1:28 left in the period, taking a two-goal spread into the final quarter before BC scored three unanswered to earn the victory.
The Eagles are now 19-3 on the season with a 13-game win streak going into Sunday's title game. The defense was once again stellar, holding Syracuse to a season low in goals and its sixth straight game holding its foe to less than 10 scores.Â
Shea Dolce was masterful behind the net, posting seven saves for a .500 save percentage. Ryan Smith posted five draw controls and a crucial caused turnover that led to the game-tying score.Â
