WEST POINT, N.Y. - Graduate student Livy Rosenzweig led all players with five goals and six points as the sixth-ranked Loyola University Maryland women's lacrosse team earned a 16-7 victory over Army West Point Saturday afternoon at Michie Stadium.
 
The hat trick marked the ninth of the season for Rosenzweig, and the 35th of her career, while she stretched her point streak to 68-straight games.
 
Fellow graduate student Elli Kluegel also recorded a hat trick, marking her third of the season and 21st of her career, as she finished with three goals. Classmate Sam Fiedler tacked on four points, scoring one goal and dishing out a game-high three assists.
 
Senior Jillian Wilson and junior Catie Corolla each scored twice for the Greyhounds (13-1 overall, 6-0 Patriot League), while Wilson also added an assist. Freshman Georgia Latch finished with one goal and two assists, and sophomore Sydni Black and freshman Chase Boyle contributed one goal apiece. Junior Emily Wills had one assist.
 
Defensively, senior Katie Detwiler, Corolla and Wilson each scooped up three ground balls, while Corolla added four caused turnovers and Detwiler caused three. Wilson also led all players with nine draw controls.
 
For Army (10-5, 5-2), Carleigh Armstrong had a team-best four goals.
 
Kluegel found the back of the net 26 seconds into play and Rosenzweig made it 2-0 before Army scored its first at the 11:33 mark of the first quarter. Corolla and Rosenzweig would stretch Loyola's lead to 4-1 before a free position goal for the Black Knights made it 4-2 at 6:58.
 
That's all Loyola's defense would give up for the next 18 minutes though, as goals from Kluegel, Corolla, Latch and Wilson, respectively, stretched the Greyhounds lead to six, at 8-2, with eight minutes left to play before halftime. Army halted Loyola's run with back-to-back goals at 3:46 and 2:28, but Wilson's goal with 1:24 to play in the half sent the Greyhounds into the locker room with a 9-4 advantage.
 
Five-straight Greyhound goals out of the break pushed Loyola ahead 14-4 with 2:53 to play in the third quarter. Black scored first, followed by Rosenzweig, Kluegel, Rosenzweig again and Boyle. Consecutive Black Knight goals cut their deficit to eight, 14-6, early in the fourth quarter, but goals from Fiedler and Rosenzweig regained the 10-goal advantage, 16-6, with 5:26 to play. Army's final goal at 2:15 accounted for the final score.
 
Loyola will return to action on Wednesday when it hosts Bucknell at 7 p.m.
