More Snow
The Berkshires received several inches of snow this morning, but not enough to close schools, unlike yesterday's sleety mess. Temperatures will drop into the 20s this afternoon. A few more snow showers are expected through the weekend.
We have reports that the roads are very slippery to take care in the evening commute. |

Eph Women's Lacrosse Falls at Wesleyan 9-8Williams Sports Info - April 07, 2008
MIDDLETOWN, CT – Williams women's lacrosse (2-5,1-4 NESCAC) lost 9-8 to NESCAC and Little Three rival Wesleyan (5-3, 2-2 NESCAC) on the Cardinals home field. The Ephs came out strong, with juniors Julia Nawrocki and Britt Spackman scoring a goal a piece in the first three minutes of play. Wesleyan quickly responded with a pair of goals to tie the game, and the Ephs pulled back to lead 4-3 at the half with goals from sophomore Whitney Thayer and Tina Nawrocki.
A second goal from Spackman at 28:28 boosted the Ephs lead to 5-3. Wesleyan freshman Jess Chukwu's second goal of the game tied the contest at 5-5. Williams took the lead again with a goal from Tina Nawrocki, but two more goals from Chukwu gave the Cardinals the advantage for the first time at 17:10. The Ephs then pulled ahead 8-7 with goals from first year Anne Marie Burke and Julia Nawrocki. With goals from Sarah Orkin and Allie Lynch in the last 10 minutes of play, the Cardinals sealed the victory. Williams fought back in the last minute of play after junior Lizzie Burns caused Wesleyan to turn the ball over, but the Ephs two shots went wide. Eph head coach Chris Mason commented that the Ephs "needed to play more dynamically on and off the ball.
Our defense played all right but we needed to score more." Williams freshman goaltender Julia Schreiber made 5 saves in the contest, and Wesleyan goalie Rachel Stemerman turned aside 8 shots by the Ephs to collect the win. Julia Nawrocki, Tina Nawrocki, and Britt Spackman led the Eph attack with two goals each, and Spackman added two assists. Wesleyan's Jess Chukwu led the Cardinals with four goals and one assist. The Ephs will next host archrival Amherst College at 1:00pm Saturday April, 12th. |
