Box Score LYNCHBURG, VA – The Randolph College women's lacrosse team played its penultimate game of the season, taking on cross town foe Lynchburg College Wednesday afternoon on a cloudy, rainy afternoon. LC earned the win though, posting a 19-2 victory from Shellenberger Field.
Lynchburg (9-6/6-2 ODAC) scored the first four goals of the contest before Randolph junior Danielle Haney (Norwood, PA/Interboro) notched her 41st of the season to make the score 4-1.
