VILLANOVA, PA. -- The Georgetown University women's lacrosse team, ranked sixth in the nation, earned its first shutout of the season with a 17-0 win over Villanova University on Wednesday, March 15, at Villanova Stadium. Sophomore All-American attacker Erin Elbe led the Hoyas with a season-high four goals, while All-American attacker Sheehan Stanwick contributed three goals and an assist and senior midfielder Kristen Baer added two goals and a game-high five assists. The Hoyas improve to 4-0 on the season, while the Wildcats fall to 1-3.
