Colchester, Vt. (April 10, 2003)-The Saint Michael's women's lacrosse team remains unbeaten in the Northeast-10 Conference after a 16-7 win over Saint Anselm College at Doc Jacobs Field Thursday.

Saint Michael's improves to 3-2 overall and 3-0 in the NE-10 while Saint Anselm drops to 1-6 overall and 0-4 in the NE-10.

Senior co-captain Amanda Lohin (Wellesley, Mass.) led the Purple Knights in scoring by tallying a season-high six goals and four assists on the day. Saint Michael's jumped out to an 8-0 lead in the first half before Hawks' senior Katelynn O'Connell (Sandwich, Mass./ Sandwich) put the visitors on the board with just four seconds remaining.

O'Connell led the way for Saint Anselm picking up three goals and an assist. Four different players picked up goals as well for the Hawks and Saint Anselm rallied to play what was arguably its best half of the season following the 8-1 mid-game deficit.
