Kent, OHIO - The Kent State Lacrosse team welcomed in Florida State of the ACC to Dix Stadium for non-conference action on Tuesday morning in the inaugural season for the Seminoles. A fast start for the road team gave Florida State momentum to defeat the Golden Flashes by a score of 14-5.
FSU got off to a hot start as they scored their first five goals of the game in a span of six minutes. The Flashes then settled in defensively and would score two goals in the first quarter from senior Zayda Crumpton and a buzzer-beating goal at the end of the half from senior attacker Lizzie Lundeen to bring the score to 8-3 in favor of Florida State heading into the second half.
In the third quarter, senior Emily Bond scored her second goal of the season from long-range, but FSU would answer with five straight goals followed by a goal from KSU junior attacker Morgan Halli to bring the score to where it would remain final at 14-5.
Crumpton finished the game with five draw controls while senior Meghan Haddow and sophomore Ava Todd each finished with an assist. On the defensive side, sophomore defender Amber Shinsky had a strong game, causing four turnovers and picking up three ground balls.Â
Junior Davanee McNairy also finished the game with two ground balls. Kent State Goalkeeper Sydney Davis added to her impressive junior season as she produced a season-high in saves with 16; a top ten performance all-time for blue and gold in a single game.
