History
Freshman Madison Olmstead established a single-season and freshman record as the University of Hartford women’s lacrosse team won its fourth straight game with a 16-10 upset of Commonwealth Coast Conference foe Nichols Wednesday.
Olmstead finished with five goals and two assists in the victory to finish the game 32 goals, 14 assists and 46 points – all single-season freshman records. The 32 goals and 46 points are also the program’s single-season record. She is one assist from tying the program’s single-season mark for assists.
Hartford took over in the second half by scoring seven of nine second-half goals, including all three of the fourth-period markers. In all eight different Hartford players scored in the victory.
Nichols scored three of the first four goals before graduate Lily Belle Baker made her presence felt in her first appearance of the season. She assisted on a goal, then scored the next two to give Hartford its first lead of the game. After sophomore Laurel McIntosh capped a four-game spurt, the Bison ended the quarter with a pair of goals.
The Hawks opened up a three-goal lead in the second period before Nichols closed the half with two goals to pull to within one.
