Hokie ClubBLACKSBURG – The Virginia Tech lacrosse team is back on the field on Saturday, March 27 for a conference clash with second-ranked Syracuse in the Carrier Dome. The game will be shown on ACC Network and begin at 5 p.m.
The Hokies are coming off of their most lopsided victory of the season, a 19-5 win over NRV foe Radford on Tuesday night. In that contest, Sarah Lubnow tallied a career-best nine points (3 goals, 6 assists) and Paige Petty scored five times, taking her career point total over 200.
Petty is now just the fourth Hokie to register 200 career points and is the only one to also record 200 draw controls in her career. With 183 career goals, she needs four more to become the program's leader in that category.
