Spoljaric Sets Single-game Program Record
Corning, NY -- Unseasonably cold temperatures did nothing to cool down the offense of the Elmira College women's lacrosse team, who scored early and often in a 21-11 victory over Wells College on Saturday afternoon. The win is Elmira's first on the young 2016 season, while it was also the first victory in the fledgling career of first-year head coach
Alexa Tardif.
Moorea Spoljaric '16 had a historic day for the EC attack, as she at times was a one-woman wrecking crew through the Wells defense. She set a new single-game program record with 11 goals to up her season total to 18 on the year.
In Her Own Words…
Head Coach
Alexa Tardif on today's game…
"I thought that the team did a great job communicating and connecting with each other throughout the entire game. They worked extremely hard at both ends and it showed on the scoreboard. I'm really proud of their performance today."
Tardif on Spoljaric's big game…
"Moorea is an extremely strong player in all facets of the game, both physical and mental. She did a great job working with her teammates to create offensive chances. We have been stressing moving the goalie in practice and I thought she did a great job of that this afternoon."
