OBERLIN, Ohio -- Mount Union's women's lacrosse team used its defense to generate offense as the Purple Raiders forced 36 Oberlin turnovers in a 13-7 win Wednesday night at Knowlton Stadium.

Oberlin cut the deficit in half with a goal at 13:32 before Mount Union finished the half with three straight goals to lead 5-1 at the break.

Oberlin cut the lead to 5-3 with a pair of goals in the first three minutes of the second half then Elder assisted on three-straight Mount Union goals from Bernardi, Kenzie Pensyl (Kent / Roosevelt) and Alyssa Rydell (Medina) to make the score 8-3 with 23:36 to play.
