Sophomore Kelsey Cohen (Baldwin/Baldwin) scored a career-best six goals and senior Katie Flannery (Massapequa/Plainedge) collected a career-best nine points today to lead the SUNY Oneonta women's lacrosse team to a lopsided 18-6 victory against city-rival Hartwick.  Oneonta broke the game open midway through the first half en route to its third win of the season.
 
Flannery got Oneonta (3-3) started less than one minute into the game with her first of four goals on the afternoon.  Cohen and junior Jaime Morris (West Nyack/Clarkstown South) followed to give the Red Dragons a 3-0 lead nearly 11 minutes into the contest.
 
Emma Knapp put Hartwick (3-4) on the scoreboard just over one minute later when she scored an unassisted tally before Megan Young scored off an assist from Ashley Werner to make the score 3-2.
 
The Red Dragons then seized the momentum running off seven unanswered to take a commanding 10-2 lead with less than six minutes to go in the opening half.  Flannery scored a pair, Cohen tallied four and Morris added one during the run.
 
Sophomore Cara Zanta (Scotia/Scotia-Glenville Senior) sandwiched a goal between Kayla Tracey and Lauren Rosenberg to make the score 11-4 in favor of Oneonta heading into the intermission.
 
Flannery notched her final goal of the game 40 seconds into the second half.  Freshmen Shannon Giddens (Franklin Square/H Frank Carey) and Erin Fowler (East Meadow/East Meadow) each scored their second goals of the season during the final minutes of the game.  Giddens assisted on Fowler's goal, which was the 18^th and final goal of the game for the Red Dragons.
 
Sophomore Jaclyn Marry (Long Beach/Long Beach) and freshman Lexi Keen (Clifton Park/Shenendehowa) split the game today and combined for four saves.
 
The women will open SUNYAC play this Saturday at home when they face SUNY Geneseo beginning at 3pm.
