FARMVILLE, Va. — The Longwood Lancers rattled off 13 straight goals during the first half and Davidson never recovered in falling 19-4 on the road in its first National Lacrosse Conference game of the season at the Athletics Complex in Farmville, Va.

In a matchup of last year's top-two teams that reached the NLC finals, Longwood (4-3, 1-0 NLC) got the best of the Wildcats (1-7, 0-1 NLC) again. The Lancers earned a 17-9 win in last year's final.

After Ann Fucigna (Darien, Conn.) opened the game with her 17th goal of the season, Longwood would run off 13 straight goals from the 25:28 mark of the half all the way until the 1:57 mark for a 13-1 lead.

Alanna Parker (Spring Valley, Calif.) halted the run, but it was too little too late for Davidson. The sophomore did push her consecutive goal streak to 16 games and added more score in the second half to give her 17 on the season.

Erin Doherty (Cincinnati, Ohio) added the fourth and final goal for Davidson in the late stages of the second period. She picked up a season-high four draw controls.

Cara O'Brien again led the Lancers in scoring, finishing off a season-high six chances to give her 23 goals on the season.

Also tallying a multi-goal game for the Lancers was Kesley Dean with four, Jessica Rudloff with three and Jamie Brentlinger with two.

Lily Graham (Washington, D.C.) led three Wildcats with two caused turnovers apiece, while fellow senior Taylor Ketcham (Hampstead, N.C.) had a career-best four groundballs.

The Wildcats return home for a 6 p.m. contest on Tuesday, Mar. 22 vs. Binghamton in Richardson Stadium on the FieldTurf.
