Women’s lacrosse dominates in top-five matchup

By Leanna DeSousa | April 2

On Saturday, No.2 Tufts took on No.5 Colby College at home on Bello Field. Both teams came onto the field undefeated. Despite having a slower start than usual, the Jumbos were able to extend their now nine-game win streak, their dominance in Division III lacrosse remaining untouchable. In an email to the Daily, junior attacker Allie Zorn wrote “We’ve been really active in the ride which has gotten us a lot of opportunities back and of course, Genna Gibbons has been giving us so much possession from the draw — it makes our lives on offense much easier.”
