HAMILTON, N.Y. - The Lehigh women's lacrosse team jumped out to a 7-4 halftime lead, but Colgate scored seven of the game's final 10 goals including the game-winner with 17 seconds remaining, to hand the Mountain Hawks a heartbreaking 12-11 loss on Saturday afternoon. Freshman Allison LaBeau scored a game-high four goals and now has six goals and three assists over her last two games. Freshman Krista Dampman added four points (three goals, one assist) and classmate Lauren Beausoleil scored as well. The rookies combined for eight of Lehigh's 11 goals on the afternoon.
 
Sophomore Kendall Garden added two goals, two groundballs, two caused turnovers and a draw control in a strong all-around effort. Junior Carli Sukonik scored as well. Senior Alexandra Fitzpatrick made seven saves between the pipes.
 
Colgate scored three of the first four goals to take a 3-1 lead less than five minutes into the game. Lehigh answered in a big way, scoring six straight to take a 7-3 advantage. Beausoleil got the scoring started and was followed by four different goal scorers. Dampman then added her second in that stretch for the four-goal lead with 7:39 left in the first half.
 
The Raiders pulled within 7-4 at the half then scored just 34 seconds into the second half. After Dampman's third goal at 24:40, the Raiders reeled off three straight to even the score at eight. Garden gave the Mountain Hawks a 9-8 advantage, but Colgate continued to answer. Down 11-10 with less than two minutes remaining, LaBeau took a feed from Dampman and beat Colgate goalie Jennie Berglin to even the score at 11 with 1:13 on the clock.
 
Lehigh won the ensuing draw control, but Colgate forced a turnover and scored the game-winner with just 17 seconds remaining.
 
Lehigh held a 25-24 edge in shots while the Raiders had the advantage in groundballs (19-17) and draw controls (17-8). Berglin made eight saves across Fitzpatrick's seven.
 
The Mountain Hawks will look to bounce back against Lafayette on Wednesday (Mar. 19) at 7 p.m.
