Box Score GENESEO, N.Y.—The Oneonta State women's lacrosse team fell on the road today at SUNY Geneseo 15-9.  Freshman Jillian Donodeo (Holbrook/Sachem East) led Oneonta with three goals and two assists as the Red Dragons are now 9-2 overall and 3-2 in the SUNYAC.  The win for the Blue Knights raises its overall record to 6-4 and 2-2 in conference play.

Oneonta scored a pair of goals in the first minute of the game to jump out quickly.  Senior Rebecca Monteith (West Islip/West Islip) scored on a free position shot just 13 seconds into the contest.  She was followed 34 seconds later by freshman Kiera McNally (East Northport/Northport), who scored with an assist from Donodeo.

Geneseo countered with three unanswered goals to grab its first lead of the game before junior Caroline Tulley (Malverne/Sacred Heart Academy) tied the score on a free position shot at the 5:49 mark.

Once again, the Blue Knights ran off three straight goals before Monteith and Donodeo cut the lead back to one goal at 6-5 with just under eight minutes remaining in the first half.

Geneseo scored a pair of goals in the final two minutes of the half to take an 8-5 lead into halftime.

Back-to-back goals to start the second half by Donodeo and senior Heidi Kissinger (East Islip/East Islip) brought Oneonta to within one goal again at 8-7.  Unfortunately that would be as close as the Red Dragons would get as Geneseo scored the next seven goals to put the game out of reach.

Oneonta will be at Scranton this coming Tuesday night for a non-conference game beginning at 7pm.
