MADISON, N.J. – Junior Allie DiDario broke the school record for career caused turnovers, but 20th-ranked University of Scranton erased a late three-goal deficit to edge past the Drew University women's lacrosse team in a key Landmark Conference (LC) match-up Wednesday afternoon in Ranger Stadium. Scranton ran its record to 12-1 (4-0 LC) on the season while the Rangers, facing their second-straight nationally-ranked opponent, moved to 12-2 (2-2 LC).
