CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - Boston College lacrosse suffered a narrow 17-14 loss to Virginia on Saturday afternoon at Klockner Stadium.
​The Eagles fall to 8-6 and 5-4 in the ACC, while the Cavaliers improve to 7-8 and 5-4 in the league.
​Giulia Colarusso and Kylee Colbert paced the offense with four goals apiece, while Marissa White registered a hat trick with one assist for four points.  Molly Driscoll tallied three points with one goal and two helpers. Casey Colbert dished out two assists as well.
​Julia Hodell led the team with a pair of caused turnovers and Abbey Herod collected a season-high 10 draw controls.
​The Cavaliers held an 8-3 lead in the first half until BC finished the final 9:11 of the second period with a 3-0 run capped off by a K. Colbert score to slice the gap to 8-6 going into the break.
​Colarusso scored the first goal of the second half before the hosts pushed the lead back to two, 9-7. K. Colbert and Colarusso stepped up once again with back-to-back goals to tie the game, highlighted by Colarusso's BTB to make it 9-9.
​However, UVA bridged the third and fourth periods with a 5-0 run to go up 14-9 with 12:14 left in the game. BC responded with four straight of its own, trimming the lead to 14-13. It was as close as the Eagles would get, as UVA scored three of the final four to pull away.
