» NEWS AND NOTES
This Week in KSU Lacrosse
»    After getting their first win of the season, the Owls are traveling to Buies Creek, North Carolina to play Campbell on Sunday, March 1 at 2 p.m.
 
Last Time Out                                    
»    The Kennesaw State women's lacrosse team got their first win of the season by beating the Delaware State Hornets 17-7 on a dreary day at Fifth Third Bank Stadium.
 
Coach Llanes on Taylor McGhee's Strong Start 
»    "Taylor McGhee is working really hard on and off the field and she's one of those student athletes that commits 100 percent of herself to being a leader in this program which means she's working hard in the weight room, she's working hard during conditioning with our sports performance team. That kind of focus has helped her see gains on the field. Taylor is a leader that we look to on and off the field and today was no exception to that."
 
KSU as a Team                                   
»    With the added emphasis on winning the draw controls, the team won that battle against Davidson and Delaware State. Against the Wildcats, the team won 16 to the Davidson's 10, and against Delaware State the Owls had a 15-10 advantage. Sydney Farwick and McGhee combined to to match Delaware State as each of them had five ground balls.
»    Delaware State coughed the ball up 30 times against the Owls with KSU getting credited for causing 15 of those. That is a season high for the Owls.
»    The way Llanes set up the schedule this season, the returners and freshmen will have some strong competition leading into conference play, while also playing some programs that players are familiar with. Out of the ten non-conference matchups scheduled this season, the Owls will play five of the same teams that they played last year. Those teams are Elon, Vanderbilt, Davidson, Campbell and Coastal Carolina.
