Calvin Women's Lacrosse Stretches Win Streak to Four With Win at Kalamazoo

KALAMAZOO, Mich. – The Calvin women's lacrosse team stretched its win streak to four games and remained unbeaten in the MIAA with a 16-8 victory at Kalamazoo College Tuesday night.

The Knights are now 7-4 overall and 3-0 in conference play heading into a Saturday night matchup with Saint Mary's at Eagles Stadium.

Calvin overcame a 2-0 first quarter deficit with five unanswered goals to lead 5-2 after one quarter of play. Kalamazoo (5-7 overall, 1-1 MIAA) came back with a pair of goals to close within one but the Knights ended the second quarter on a 3-1 scoring run with senior Lainey Aldridge (Grosse Pointe Woods, Mich./Grosse Pointe North HS), freshman Audrey Booher (Fishers, Ind./Heritage Christian HS) and senior Mekaelah McClymont (Camp Hill, Pa./Covenant Christian Academy) scoring to give the Knights an 8-5 lead. The goal by McClymont came with just 16 seconds left in the half and gave the Knights a boost of momentum.

Calvin scored the first three goals of the second half to build an 11-5 lead and never looked back. Five different Knights scored in the third quarter as Calvin held a 14-7 advantage heading into the final quarter of play.

McClymont and senior Megan Gilbert (Lansing, Mich./Holt HS) added fourth quarter goals to close out the scoring.

Senior goalie Jessica Camp (O'Fallon, Il./O'Fallon Township HS) was again stellar for the Knights, making 12 saves on 20 shot attempts for a .600 saves percentage. Camp turned aside four of five free position shot attempts by the Hornets.

McClymont had a big game with five goals, one assist, five ground balls and a career-high seven draw controls.

Gilbert helped facilitate the offense from her midfield spot, recording four goals to go with four assists while scooping up five ground balls, causing three turnovers and recording two draw controls.

Aldridge and Booher had three goals apiece with Booher picking up one assist.

Sophomore Meghan Chang (Clarksburg, Md./Clarksburg HS) had one goal. Senior defender Liske Lieuwen caused four turnovers and scooped up three ground balls.

Calvin finished the game with a 31-26 shots at goal advantage.

COACHES COMMENT: "Happy with the result today," said Calvin head women's lacrosse coach Blake Boehm. "Our defense played a really good game and kept us energized from beginning to end. We had a slow start and some miscues in transition that kept us on our toes. We're starting to figure ourselves out and find our rhythm."

NEXT UP: Calvin will host Saint Mary's Saturday night at 7 p.m. at Eagles Stadium.
