VESTAL, N.Y. - Binghamton women's lacrosse fell to No. 5 Stony Brook 18-3 Tuesday afternoon at the Bearcats Sports Complex. An 8-0 run to kick off the game helped carry the visitors to the win, despite two goals for Binghamton in the second quarter.

Stony Brook kept Binghamton off the board in the third quarter, but Annabelle Conover scored her first career goal in the closing seconds to round out BU's scorers. The sophomore scooped up a loose ball and found her way to the front of the goal to score.

Freshman Olivia Muscolino added an assist for Binghamton. The Bearcats were even with the SeaWolves in draw controls, as each side recorded 12.
