BOSTON, Mass. – Sophomore Emily Whitney (Rye, N.H.) scored three goals and added four assists for a game-high seven points to help pace the Endicott College women's lacrosse team to a 21-2 win over Wentworth Institute of Technology in Commonwealth Coast Conference action on Sweeney Field.
With the win the Gulls notch their second straight victory to improve to 6-3 overall and 2-1 in league play while the Leopards fall to 2-4 (0-4) after dropping their fourth straight.

Sophomore Emily Cutting (Ferrisburgh, Vt.) freshman Erin McCarthy (Old Lyme, Conn.) each added a pair of goals for Endicott in the half.

Senior Jessica Houghton (Billerica, Mass.) scored her 11th of the season with junior Pam Mudge (Hooksett, N.H.) on the assist. Endicott led the Leopards 13-2 at the half.
