May 1, 2015

Box Score

Lib Lowry scored three goals and Tess Drotar and Clare Hurley has two apiece, but it was not enough as the Dukes saw their season come to a conclusion with an 11-9 loss to Richmond in the semifinals of the 2015 Atlantic 10 Championship.

It was a tightly contested first half as neither team led by more than two, with the Spiders taking a 5-3 halftime lead.

UR would take its biggest leads of the game to that point, leading 8-4 with 20:34 remaining, 9-5 with 18:27 ticking and 10-6 with 16:30 left. Richmond would score again with 10:38 to go up by five goals at 11-6.

DU would then rattle off three straight goals by Lowry, Hurley and Lowry again to cut it to 11-9 with 1:17 remaining, but it would not be enough as that was all the Dukes could muster.

Jenna Bishop made nine saves in goal. Lib Lowry was named to the All-Championship Team.

The Dukes finished the season at 9-9.
