Varsity Roundup

Women’s lacrosse

The women’s lacrosse team (0-4) lost 13-9 to Drexel on Sunday at the Mount Vernon Athletics Complex. The Colonials led 5-4 at halftime, but gave up seven consecutive goals in the second half, putting them in an insurmountable hole. Junior Mia Breheny scored three goals – all in the first half – to lead GW, which next plays George Mason Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. on Mount Vernon.

Women’s water polo

The women’s water polo team (2-7) lost two of the three matches it played this weekend at the Eastern College Athletic Conference championships in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. After beating St. Francis 11-7 on Saturday, the Colonials lost two close matches, 7-5 to host Marist later that day and 9-8 to Wagner Sunday.

GW next plays Thursday against Bucknell 7 p.m. at the Smith Center.

Baseball

The baseball team (1-5) earned its first win of the season Saturday, as the Colonials beat Lehigh 13-9 at Barcroft Park. Senior Pat Lehman (1-0) allowed just one run in five innings, while junior Tom Zebroski and redshirt senior Gavin Swanson each hit home runs. The Colonials lost 10-9 to Lehigh Sunday in a back and forth game that saw the Mountain Hawks score three runs in the eighth inning to give them the win.

GW next plays Wednesday at the University of Virginia.
