Sewanee falls to Rhodes on the road

SEWANEE, Tenn. – Three Tigers collected a hat trick, but the Tigers fell to Rhodes in women's lacrosse action on Sunday afternoon in Memphis, Tenn. 

Emma Burns, Brooke Sigmon, and Sally Herrington all collected three goals apiece. Erika Bolcar and Claire Dillard also added one each. From the face-off, Herrington recorded five wins and Bolcar posted three, while Sigmon, Dillard, and Alex Kelly registered one each. 

Sally Whitehead led the Tigers defensively, as she collected five caused turnovers and three ground balls. Sigmon, Bolcar, Dillard, and Ella Townsend collected two caused turnovers each. Sigmon, Bolcar, and Winnie Pajcic added to the defense with two ground balls each. 
 
Rhodes opened the game with two back-to-back goals before Emma Burns tallied the Tigers' first goal. The Lynx answered with another quick goal of their own, but two goals from Brooke Sigmon within 36 seconds tied the game at three a piece. 

Claire Dillard found the back of the net off an assist from Raleigh Cooper to gain the lead, but Rhodes tallied three goals in the last minute and 53 seconds to end the first period. 

The Lynx continued their unanswered goal streak, collecting six goals to build a 12-4 lead. Sally Herrington and Erika Bolcar posted a goal apiece at the end of the second to chip away at Rhodes' lead. 

Rhodes opened the third period stringing together another set of answered goals, this time posting four, and keeping the Tigers off of the board in the third period.  

Herrington collected a free-position goal with 12:44 on the clock in the fourth period. Rhodes collected another quick goal off a draw-control win, but a turnover and ground ball from Herrington led to her third goal for the night. 

Rhodes notched another quick goal in response, but Burns collected two back-to-back goals to complete her hat trick for the day, her first with an assist from Dillard. A draw-control win from Herrington led to a third goal from Sigmon with an assist from Claire Saverino. Despite the Tigers' late push, they fell just dropping their second conference game, 11-18 to move to 1-1 in SAA play. 

The Tigers play their last non-conference game this season as they are slated to host Oberlin on Wednesday at 6 p.m. before resuming conference play on the road against Berry on Friday, March 29 at 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT.
