ROCKVILLE CENTRE, N.Y. – It was a record afternoon for senior midfielder Mackenzie Reh (Medford, N.Y./Patchogue Medford), who broke the school record, scoring a career-high nine goals as the University of New Haven women's lacrosse team took down Molloy, 18-6, en route to its first victory of 2019.

Six different Chargers scored on the afternoon as freshman Marina Skelly (Ronkonkoma, N.Y./Connequot) recorded her first collegiate goals and ended the day with a hat trick. Senior Samantha Galler (Marshfield, Mass./Marshfield) and sophomore Emily Holland (Londonderry, N.H./Londonderry) each had two goals, while juniors Kendra Nolan (Oak Ridge, N.J./Jefferson Township) and Caroline Maher (Mansfield, Mass./Mansfield) each added one goal. Maher had a team high two assists, while junior Julia Jette (Franklin, Mass./Franklin) and Reh each added one.

Reh also tied Ashely Wolcott (Ferrandiz) '12 for second in points in a single game with 10. Skelly and Maher each had three points.

New Haven dominated defensively and were in command of draw controls, winning 16-9. Nolan led the way with a team-high nine draw controls, while Reh collected five and Raven Linton (Lawrenceville, N.J./Notre Dame) had two. Senior defender Marie Cox (Hamden, Conn./Hamden) led the team with three caused turnovers.

In goal, Gianna Guerra (Stony Point, N.Y./North Rockland) recorded her first win of the season. She had four saves on the afternoon, and faced 10 shots.  

The Chargers came out of the gates ready to play and found the back of the net 14 times in the first half. Emily Holland (Londonderry, N.H./Londonderry) got the scoring started, recording her first goal of the season. Caroline Maher (Mansfield, Mass./Mansfield) added a goal less than a minute later while Reh scored her first goal of the game to give the Chargers an early 3-0 advantage.

The Chargers did not slow down. Skelly notched her first collegiate goal in the fifth minute of the game. Reh scored the next three goals for the Chargers, and Galler scored her first goal of the game to extend the lead to 8-0 with just under 18 minutes left of the first half. The Lions got on the board 17 minutes into the game, but Guerra and the defense would not allow another goal for the rest of the half.

The Blue and Gold scored six unanswered goals to close out the first half as Reh added three more, Kendra Nolan (Oak Ridge, N.J./Jefferson Township) found the back of the net and Skelly and Holland each recorded their second goals of the game.

The Lions found the back of the net first to begin the second half. Reh would keep the scoring going for the Chargers, connecting on a pass from Jette. Just four minutes later, Reh recorded her ninth goal of the game to become the new record holder for goals scored in a game.

The Lions would convert a free position attempt before Galler scored her second goal of the game from Reh. Molloy scored three more times, but Skelly found the back of the net to complete the hat trick.
