    BEVERLY, Mass. — The Endicott women's lacrosse team defeated Springfield, 15-10, in a Saturday non-conference matinee from Hempstead Stadium.

    Emerson Clark (Gloucester, Mass.) and Leah Black (Cheshire, Conn.) led the charge with four goals apiece, while Mia Smith (Portsmouth, N.H.) recorded a hat trick.
