Â
Lasinski put another shot on target 30 seconds later.
Â
Misericordia found multiple opportunities throughout the quarter with shots from

Â
MU kept attacking to begin the second and Lasinski took the ball up the middle, beat the defender to the right flank and slotted a shot inside the left post less three minutes into the second quarter.
Â
Delaney Miller had a good look at the goal off a penalty corner that was just kicked away by the goalie in the final minute of the first half.
Â
With four minutes left in the third, Oneonta got the ball on the right flank, but Nonnemacher stepped up and made the save, kicking the ball away for the clear to preserve the shutout.
Â
