SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – The nationally ranked No. 10 Ithaca College women's lacrosse program wrapped up regular season play with a 14-7 victory at Skidmore College on Saturday afternoon. With the win, Ithaca finishes with a 14-2 overall record and 8-2 mark in the league play ahead of next week's Liberty League Championship. The Bombers will host Clarkson University in a quarterfinal matchup on May 3, and if victorious, will travel to William Smith College for the semifinal round.

Skidmore got on the board first on an early tally in the opening minute of action, but the Bombers responded with four straight goals over a four-minute stretch to take the lead for good.

Megan Motkowski started IC off with her 41st goal of the season off a pass from Maizy Veitch at the 12:42 mark, and Veitch notched her 54th goal just 42 seconds later. The lead grew to 3-1 as Maddie Hall registered her 12th score, unassisted, and then Veitch scored again with 8:54 remaining.

IC and Skidmore traded goals for the remainder of the first quarter as the Bombers owned a 5-3 lead before the second marker from Motkowski.

In the second quarter, Veitch took a pass from Motkowski and then Sydney Phillips picked up her 27th goal to extend the lead to four at 7-3 with 10:27 remaining in the half. The Thoroughbreds would score once in the quarter, with 9:34 to go, but the Bombers closed out the half with two more goals from Lexi Kellish (5th of the season) and Hall to take a 9-4 advantage into intermission.

The Bombers pushed their lead out to 12-5 with 5:35 left in the third quarter as Motkowski, Phillips and Madison Boutureira (30th) all scored. Skidmore had the final say of the third quarter to make it 12-6 heading into the final period.

Veitch, who finished the game with seven points on five goals and two assists, earned both goals of the fourth quarter as Boutureira and Rachel Rosenberg picked up assists.

Lexi Held made 12 saves with four groundballs in her 14th win of the season, while Rosenberg won eight draws and scooped up four groundballs with three caused turnovers. Kelly Mehorter finished with two groundballs and two caused turnovers.

Gametime on May 3 is still to be determined against Clarkson. More information will follow earlier next week. If victorious, Ithaca will play second-seeded St. Lawrence.
