Greensboro, N.C. - The Lady Lion lacrosse team moved to 2-0 in conference play with a 12-7 victory over Greensboro College Sunday. ROWAN BUMPASS and CAITLIN O'BRIEN each accounted for three goals in the contest as Piedmont used a hot start to take control.

ROWAN BUMPASS added her second goal of the game before the half to make it 6-2 PC at the break. In the second half, the Pride had an answer for each Lady Lion goal until late in the half when PC added two in a row, but the comeback came up short for the Pride as the Lady Lions won 12-7 outscoring the Pride 6-5 in the second half.
