GREENSBORO, N.C. – Amanda Dionne (Nashua, N.H./Tabor Academy (Mass.)) scored a career-high six goals and Demming Carlow (West Chester, Pa./Unionville) added a personal-best nine points in Guilford College’s 20-10 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) lacrosse win over visiting Virginia Wesleyan College Saturday. The Quakers’ Carter MacLeod (Annapolis, Md./Key School) made a school-record eight caused turnovers as Guilford (6-5) moved to 4-0 in the ODAC.
Jaquelyn Gabaldon’s goal seven minutes into the game gave the Marlins (2-9, 1-3 ODAC) a 3-2 lead, but Guilford scored eight of the half’s final nine goals and led, 10-4, at halftime. Carlow, Dionne, MacLeod and Marina Bailey (Rockville, Md./Thomas S. Wootton) each scored twice in the opening period. The Quakers outshot the Marlins, 27-15, in the first half and forced 14 of the Marlins’ 24 turnovers.
Dionne scored consecutive goals 24 seconds apart as part of Guilford’s 5-1 run to start the second half. Carlow’s unassisted score with 22:09 left in regulation opened a 15-5 Quakers’ lead.
The Marlins reeled off the next three goals, which pulled the visitors to within, 15-8, before Guilford’s Dionne and Carlow combined on three straight scores that put the game out of reach.
Carlow matched her career high with five goals and set new personal standards with nine points and four assists. Her nine points are the most by a Quaker this season and 11th-best in school history. Dionne added four draw controls and three ground balls to her six goals, which match the most by a Quaker this year. Bailey contributed four goals and four draw controls. MacLeod added a season-best three goals and matched her career high with seven ground balls.
Guilford’s Madison Ruppenthal (Kensington, Md./Albert Einstein Sr.) turned in a strong defensive effort with four ground balls, three draw controls and three caused turnovers. Sammi Milbourn made nine saves and picked up four ground balls in 54 minutes before Sarah Sedaghat finished with two saves in the final six minutes.
Megan Schallock paced the Marlins with three goals, two assists, three ground balls, five caused turnovers and 13 draw controls. Becca Winslow also scored three times. Shannon Ruffalo caused three turnovers and picked up five ground balls. Madison Carroll (Leonardtown, Md./Leonardtown) made 16 saves.
