Women's Lacrosse wins SAA Championships against Rhodes, 10-7

SEWANEE, Tenn. – Powered by a hat trick from Kennedy Harcourt and two goals from Brooke Sigmon and Marlin Price, the Sewanee women's lacrosse team captured the 2025 Southern Athletic Association Championship with a 10-7 victory over Rhodes on Saturday afternoon. The title marks Sewanee's third SAA championship and first since 2014.

Harcourt was electric from the start, winning the opening draw control and scoring just 11 seconds into the game. She struck again less than a minute later, following a Rhodes turnover to give the Tigers a quick 2-0 lead. Harcourt finished with three goals, three caused turnovers, two ground balls, and a draw control.

After an early Rhodes response, Sewanee regained momentum late in the first quarter. Sigmon forced a turnover that led to a goal from Price off a feed from Claire Dillard. Rhodes answered with back-to-back goals, one on a free position attempt and the other while playing man-down, but Sewanee took the lead back before the break. Sally Herrington netted a goal in the final minute of the quarter, assisted by a caused turnover and ground ball from Mallory Magee.

Goalkeeper Lilly Jordan helped preserve the lead in the second quarter with three key saves. Sigmon broke through with a goal midway through the period, but Rhodes responded with two quick scores to tie the game at 5-5. Harcourt then completed her hat trick just before the halftime buzzer to put Sewanee back in front, 6-5.

The Tigers opened the second half with three straight goals to build their cushion. Price scored off a defensive play sparked by Winnie Pajcic and Ella Townsend. Sigmon converted a free-position attempt, and Morgan Boylan followed with another free-position goal to make it 9-5.

Rhodes notched a free-position goal late in the third, but both defenses tightened up in the final quarter. Sofia Bean extended the lead to 10-6 with just over eight minutes to play, and Rhodes added one final free-position goal. The Lynx managed just two more shots the rest of the way, both off-target, as Sewanee closed out the championship victory.

Pajcic led the Tigers defensively with four caused turnovers and three ground balls, while Townsend recorded five ground balls, a caused turnover, and a draw control. Palmer added three caused turnovers as Sewanee's defense held firm throughout the contest.

With the win, Sewanee secures the SAA's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III Championships.
