Kenyon College utilized a 6-0 run late in the second half to pull off a come-from-behind 14-12 victory over Denison in Gambier.
Denison led 7-5 at halftime thanks to four, first half goals by Meg Wilcox. In the second half Denison scored first thanks to a Michelle Bennett goal and after a Kenyon score DU would tack on two more, making the score 10-6 with 17:38 to play. At the 11:22 mark Kenyon's Caely Melford started the Ladies' six-goal run that would end with 4:43 to play. Wilcox would net her sixth goal of the day to get back within one at 12-11 but Melford's goal with 3:17 to play and Emma Stendig's score with 26 ticks left on the clock would ice the win for Kenyon.
Wilcox finished with six goals and Quinn Simmons added three goals and one assist. Kenyon outshot DU 29-28 while Denison won 15 of 25 draw controls. Big Red goalie Amanda Wilson had six saves and Bethany Keller finished with five ground balls.
Denison falls to 1-1 in North Coast Athletic Conference play while Kenyon improves to 2-0 in league play.
