No. 10 Boston College women’s lacrosse snapped its three-game win streak with a 17-14 loss to Virginia on Saturday afternoon. 

Marissa White opened the scoring and Molly Driscoll gave the Eagles a 2-1 lead early in the first quarter, but Virginia scored six unanswered goals, a stretch that bled into the second quarter, and never looked back. 

The closest Boston College got to retaking the lead was Giulia Colarusso tying the game at 9 with 7:26 to go in the third, however the Cavaliers responded and scored five straight goals to go up 14-9.

Down the stretch, Boston College outscored Virginia 5-3, but it was not enough to come back from its deficit. 

Next up, Boston College will host No. 3 Syracuse on Thursday evening for the regular season finale. Face off is set for 5:30 p.m. ET on ESPNU.
