Griffins Open Season with 16-11 Victory Over Saint Michael’s

San Rafael, Calif. – The Westminster Griffins Women's Lacrosse team kicked off their 2025 season with a strong performance, securing a 16-11 win over Saint Michael's College. The Griffins set the tone early, taking a 5-2 lead in the first quarter and never looking back as they maintained control throughout the game.

The Griffins' offensive firepower was on full display, with Jordan Williamson leading the way with four goals, while Grace Szwedko and Olivia Petrosky each found the back of the net three times. Holly Shoughro (2), Madi Rogers (2), Shaina Shoughro (1), and Celia Fidanza (1) also contributed to Westminster's balanced attack.

Game Summary

In the second quarter, Westminster continued to press the attack, scoring six goals while holding Saint Michael's to just three. A late flurry of goals, including one from Shaina Shoughro with just 8 seconds left in the half, helped the Griffins take an 11-5 advantage into halftime.
