Box Score READING, Pa. (March 1, 2023) – The Susquehanna University women's lacrosse team boasted plenty of offense Wednesday evening at Alvernia, using a 10-goal second half to walk away with a 15-3 win and improve to 3-1 on the season.

The River Hawks led 4-1 after the first quarter, scoring the first three goals of the night in the opening four minutes from Nikki Genovese, Liv Owen, and Hannah McNamara. Alvernia answered two minutes later before Kelsey Homberg delivered a strike with 40 seconds remaining in the period. The second quarter saw just one goal apiece from each side, with Alvernia's Meagan Moky scoring with 9:27 to play, only for SU's Allie Kutler to answer just seconds later as the River Hawks led 5-2 at the half.

Abby Andrus netted two of the River Hawks' first three scores in the third quarter, with Homberg getting on the board in between. Following another Moky score for Alvernia, it was all maroon and orange from then on, with goals from Liv Owen, two from Allie Kutler, McNamara off a free position, Homberg, Nikki Genovese, and Makenzy Backus.
