Box Score (PDF)
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Temple lacrosse team jumped out to a 2-0 lead and never looked back, ultimately earning a 12-4 win on the road at Jacksonville (2-6). Senior Chelsea Rosiek led the Owls (2-3) with three goals and an assist as TU dominated, out-shooting the Dolphins 34-18.
Rosiek scored the first goal of the game just over three minutes in off an assist from Stephanie Markunas, and it was Markunas who put the Owls up 2-0 just 30 seconds later.
After TU took a 5-3 lead by halftime, Jacksonville came out and narrowed the margin to one, but it would prove to be the final goal for the Dolphins.
Rosiek scored back-to-back goals within 40 seconds, and less than 10 minutes into the second half the Owls had a 9-4 lead.
Ann Stouffer scored twice for Temple as did Charlotte Swavola, while Markunas and Allison McWilliams each had a goal and an assist. Rounding out the goal-scoring efforts for TU were Melissa Schweitzer, Kellee Pace and Lindsey Colferai with one goal apiece.
Jessica Colucci played the complete game and made eight saves for the Owls. It was a strong day defensively for Temple, who recorded 38 ground balls to Jacksonville's 24. Leading the effort was senior defender Tracy Zimmer with six ground balls along with two caused turnovers.
“It was a great win for us,” said Temple head coach Bonnie Rosen. “We needed to try to find momentum, and we had to build it throughout the contest. Jacksonville is a young but talented team, and they forced us to figure out how to play our game.
“The game was won on good team defense, and Jess Colucci had a great day in goal. Some great individual efforts created wonderful team offense. It was a good confidence-builder as we get ready for Delaware (on Wednesday).
The Owls will return home for their next contest, a 3:00 p.m. game against Delaware on Wednesday, March 17.
