COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. – McDaniel scored a pair of late goals to break a 9-all deadlock and defeat Ursinus 11-10 in Centennial Conference (CC) women's lacrosse action on Saturday.

Lauren Garganio, Nicole Kovacs and Devin Brakel led the Bears (4-10, 1-6 CC) with two goals each.

Knotted at 9-all with 16:54 to play after four straight Ursinus goals, including both of Garganio's, Paige Messersmith (Phoenix, Md./Dulaney) converted a free-position goal 10 minutes later to put McDaniel back in front.

Anna Beaudry (Amherst, Mass./Amherst Regional) made it a two-goal cushion with 2:18 to play before Kovacs hit a free-position tally with 90 seconds to play to draw the hosts within one but the defense staved off one final Bear possession for the win.
