BRIDGEWATER, Va. – In the home finale for the Bridgewater Eagles women's lacrosse team, the Eagles outshot visiting Hollins by a 28-8 tally and registered 11 first-half goals en route to an 18-1 victory in Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) action.

Sophomore Katie Freeman got in on the scoring 26 seconds later when she snuck a shot past the keeper to build a 2-0 advantage before a Taylor Chamberlain tally extend the Bridgewater lead to three goals with just over three minutes expired off of the first-half clock.

Freeman added another goal with 23:47 left off of an assist by Peggy Russell before Russell got in on the scoring with a goal of her own to build the Bridgewater lead to 5-0 with 23 and change left in the first stanza.

Hollins (1-14, 0-9 ODAC) finally broke the Bridgewater run when Amanda Duffie-Fritz scored off of a Jessie McAfoos shot with 25 minutes remaining to cut the lead to 11-1, but it was all Bridgewater the rest of the way.
