Gryphons rebound after loss to Western to tie McMaster this weekend


  The women's lacrosse team dropped a tough game to Western 17-4 and then tied McMaster 11-11 this past Sunday.
 

The Gryphons were in tough for their first game this weekend facing the defending OUA champions the Western Mustangs. Western showed why they are defending champions and a team that will be fighting to keep that title by playing solidly end to end. The Gryphons struggled and ended up falling short. Veteran Staci Morris played well and earned player of the game honours.
 

After a tough first match the Gryphons were slow out of the gate in their second match against McMaster. At half they were behind 7-3, but regained their composure and outscored the Mauraders 8-4 in the second half. The Gryphons also played strong transitional defence causing several turnovers which allowed the team more time on offence. Veteran Amy Johnson came up with a buzzer beater in order to close the game with a tie.
