ITHACA, N.Y. – The nationally ranked No. 23 Ithaca College women's lacrosse team avenged a regular season loss to Vassar College on Tuesday afternoon at Higgins Stadium as the second-seeded Bombers took down the Brewers, 19-10, in a Liberty League First Round matchup. Ithaca is now 11-5 on the season and will host RIT on Friday in the Liberty League Semifinals.

Vassar would tie the game at 3-3 at the midway point and then the teams traded goals to close out the quarter as Green and Cody scored again.

The second quarter was dominated by the Bombers as they outscored Vassar, 9-1, to take control of the game and head into halftime with a 14-5 lead. Augeri, Green and Cody all notched two goals in the quarter, while Lexi Kellish, Kathryn Scallon and Leigh Naturale all four the back of the net in the nine-goal period.

Over the first 18 minutes of the second half, IC continued to roll and built a 19-6 advantage with just under 12 minutes to go in the game. Kellish, Scallon and Cody once again notched goals, while Sydney Smith and Maddie Hall got into the scoring column.
