Chippewas post strong start with 5-1 tally on the draw and three saves in the first quarter
CINCINNATI — Central Michigan Lacrosse dropped the last of its four-game road stretch to open the 2024 season Friday afternoon at Cincinnati in Nippert Stadium.
The Chippewas flexed their muscle early on draw control as the efforts of Hanna Wenger (Loveland, Ohio / Loveland) led to a 5-1 advantage through the first 15 minutes.
Sadie Hinkle (Medina, Ohio / Medina) offered a pair of goals, one each in the second and third quarters. Skye DePrado (Pittsburgh, Pa. / North Allegheny) matched Hinkle's two points, scoring CMU's first goal, then assisting Hinkle's first. Makenna Huhn (Parker, Colo. / Chaparral) struck for the final Chippewa goal in the fourth. Huhn's was the only even, live-play goal for the Chippewas as Hinkle scored once with a player up while she and DePrado each notched a free position strike.
Alexa Martel (Rochester, N.Y. / Greece Olympia) collected three of her five saves in the first quarter while Sandy Edwards (Stuart, Fla. / Klein), Jozy Allen (Cincinnati, Ohio / Sycamore) and Ava Regitz (Marietta, Ga. / Blessed Trinity)—who made her first collegiate start Friday—each caused one of Cincinnati's five turnovers in the period.
DePrado, the first Mid-American Conference Offensive Player of the Week in 2024, contributed on the defensive end as the team's leader in caused turnovers with one each in the second and fourth quarters.
Central Michigan Lacrosse opens the CMU Lacrosse Complex Sunday at 11 a.m. hosting Canisius College (NY), and will stay in Mount Pleasant for No. 20 Colorado Thursday (Feb. 29; 3 p.m.).
