Kailyn Hart scored 34 seconds into the game to launch a 7-0 run as the sixth-ranked Stony Brook women's lacrosse team beat No. 11 Princeton, 18-12, on Sunday afternoon at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium. "I'm happy for our team," coach Joe Spallina said. "Our team deserved this. This is a game that we won today, but we started winning throughout the week with preparation. Our kids stepped up. I thought we had good diversity in our scoring and our defense and goalie play was off the charts." Ally Kennedy scored a season-high six goals and added an assist and 15 draw controls in the win. Kennedy's draw control tally was just one short of the program record held by Keri McCarthy (16). Jesse Arline had a career-best day, scoring four goals. "I'm super proud of the team. It's hard to play two games in one week," said Kennedy, alluding to a win three days earlier against Towson. "We turned the page after Thursday and shifted our focus to Princeton, and I'm really proud of the younger players for showing their maturity." Hart's goal was the first of seven straight for Stony Brook against preseason All-American goalie Sam Fish. Led by Kyla Sears, Princeton answered with a three-goal run. The Tigers would cut their deficit to three in the first half. Yet for every Tiger run, the Seawolves had a response. Late first-half goals by Taryn Ohlmiller, Arline and Kennedy gave the Seawolves a six-goal cushion heading into the break. After Sears scored two straight goals to trim the deficit to 15-11, Arline scored her third goal of the day to halt the run. Rayna Sabella followed that with another goal to secure the win. Arline praised the scouting report as a big key to the victory. "I think we did a really good job of preparing and embracing the scout," Arline said. "We worked really well together. Everyone played their best game today." Hart, Ohlmiller and Sabella contributed two goals in the win. After scoring her first goal of the year in Thursday's win over Towson, Mikayla Dwyer added another one in the second half on Sunday. Princeton (3-2) was paced by Sears and Grace Tauckus, who combined for seven goals. Stony Brook (4-1) is back in action on Saturday with a trip to USC for a 3 p.m. tilt against the Trojans.
