Hopkins Women's Lacrosse Defeats Stony Brook in Thriller

Johns Hopkins University

Junior Taylor Hoss scored with less than one second remaining, lifting the Johns Hopkins women's lacrosse team to a heart-stopping 13-12 win against Stony Brook in an NCAA tournament quarterfinal played at Homewood Field on Thursday afternoon.

The win sent the fourth-seeded Blue Jays (17-4) to the NCAA semifinals for the first time in school history.

Hopkins took possession by forcing a turnover with just 13 seconds remaining, then moved the ball upfield with a series of precision passes, culminating in Hoss's game-winner from the right side of the crease. The goal gave JHU its first lead of the game.

The Blue Jays will travel to Evanston, Illinois, where they will face either top-seeded and host Northwestern or No. 8 seed Colorado on Friday.
