COACH GUIDO'S COMMENTS
"It was a lot of fun tonight. We finally got to be back home at Andy Kerr and bounce back after the Cornell game. Everyone got a chance to show what they can do tonight and it was awesome being able to get everybody in there like that."
HOW IT HAPPENED
Colgate started the scoring just 30 seconds into the game with junior Ella Bishara's fourth goal of the season. Senior Lucy Licata stole the show from there, extending the lead to a 5-0 with two goals and an assist. After McMahon's second goal of the quarter, the Raiders went into the first break up a half dozen.
The home side continued cruising in the second stanza, outshooting Le Moyne 6-1 and tacking on three more tallies.
The Dolphins scored the first goal of the second half to cut the lead to eight, but McMahon and first-year Olivia McDonald responded with back-to-back scores to assert a 10-goal lead with eight minutes remaining in the third.
With just five seconds to play in the penultimate period, Panzirer added her fourth goal of the game to send Colgate into the final quarter leading 12-2.
Colgate continued coasting in the fourth with first-year Lucy Lederman adding the cherry on top with her first-career goal as time expired.
