LAST TIME OUT
WEST CHESTER, PA – Host West Chester scored the first six goals of the game and never looked back en route to a 20-5 victory over visiting Shepherd in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division women's lacrosse contest on a sun splashed Vonnie Gros Field Wednesday afternoon.
West Chester's defense caused 17 turnovers against a short-handed Shepherd squad that was down two regular starters. West Chester, which has already wrapped up the Eastern Division regular-season crown, remained unbeaten on the year at 15-0 overall and 11-0 in the conference. Shepherd fell to 4-11 overall and 1-10 in the league.
Sophomore attacker
Sydney Wasdick (Pottsgrove, Pa./Pottsgrove) notched her 100th career goal in the win. She finished with a hat trick in the contest to go along with seven ground balls and six draw controls. Teammate
Keri Barnett (Glenolden, Pa./Archbishop Carroll) netted five goals and finished with eight points. She had five ground balls and caused six turnovers. Barnett potted her team-high 90th goal of the season to become just the third different player to reach that milestone in a single season. She is three back of the school record held by Kathleen Sheehan (93 in 2004). She joins former teammate
Hannah Stanislawczyk (92 in both 2023 and 2024) and Katelyn Martin (91 in 2006) in the 90-goal club.
Kendall Fortune (Jarrettsville, Md./North Harford) posted a hat trick and finished with four points like Wasdick had.
Audrey Miller (Sinking Spring, Pa./Wilson),
Lila McMahon Skates (West Linn, Ore./West Linn) and
Grace Rosica (Dublin, Pa./Pennridge) each scored a pair of goals as well.
Piper Hammond (Tucson, Ariz./Southridge [Ore.]) contributed a goal and an assist and had three ground balls.
Freshman goalkeeper
Morgan Koons (Mountain Top, Pa./Crestwood) got the start in the cage and made one save through the first three quarters to pick up her fifth win of the season. Sophomore
Hannah Cornelius (Medford, N.J./Shawnee) made one save in the fourth quarter to close out the game.
WEST CHESTER'S RECORD WATCH
Senior
Keri Barnett is closing in on the all-time single-season goal scoring mark at West Chester University. The midfielder became just the fourth player in school history to notch 90 goals in a season with her five-goal effort against Shepherd on Wednesday. The school record for goals in a season is held by Kathleen Sheehan, who scored 93 goals in 2004. Barnett's teammate her first three years at the school,
Hannah Stanislawczyk, scored 92 goals in both 2023 and 2024. Katelyn Martin, who scored 91 goals in 2006, is next on the list ahead of Barnett.

Hannah Stanislawczyk 92 (2024)

Keri Barnett 90 (2025)
Additionally, Barnett now has 115 points on the season, which ties another former teammate, Lindsay Monigle, for eighth on that all-time list. Barnett is working her way up the single-season point scoring list with her eye on Steph Kienle's all-time record of 143 points in 2008 well within reach.
