Georgetown, TX - The Piedmont College women's lacrosse team was in action Friday evening as they took on the Pirates of Southwestern University. After battling back from a five-goal deficit, the Pirates netted two in the closing two minutes to take the game 10-8.

ROWAN BUMPASS was first on the board in the second half scoring two and a half minutes in. Southwestern hit their stride and scored five in a row to go up 8-3 over the Lady Lions, but PC responded with a five goal run of their own as CASSIDY HEFLIN grabbed one while JULIANNA SURGENT and KAYLA JONES each grabbed a pair. 

With the score tied at eight, both teams stalled out on scoring down to the final two minutes when the Pirates grabbed two more before the final buzzer to take the contest 10-8.
