OWINGS MILLS, Md. - For the second-straight game, the Stevenson University women's lacrosse team rallied from a three-goal deficit to tie the game late in the second half against a team ranked in the top-20, but came up short by one goal as No. 13 Catholic held off the Mustangs 12-11 Saturday at the Caves Atheltics Complex.

On Thursday, Stevenson (3-4) was edged by No. 20 Elizabethtown, 16-15.

The Cardinals (6-2), who scored two of the game's final three goals over the last seven minutes, got the game-winner from Katie Miller with 6:12 remaining, just 54 seconds after Lindsay Davenport broke a 10-10 tie.

Junior Lauren Zegowitz (Gaithersburg/Damascus) had two goals during the run while junior Kristyna Hnizda (Manchester/North Carroll) and sophomore Lisa Baker (Westminster/Westminster) added a goal and an assist each.
