A rematch of last year's championship, the contest was close and hard-fought. The Eagles came back from a 6-0 first-quarter deficit and didn't take their first lead until the fourth quarter, going on to beat the Wildcats 14-13.
This is the second national championship for BC's women's lacrosse program. Their first win was in 2021.
Congratulations!
