A career-high five-goal performance by senior Ashley Carr and hat tricks from classmates Abby Meyer and Krissy Kuwahara led the Lake Forest College women's lacrosse team to a 15-6 victory over visiting Milwaukee School of Engineering in Wednesday's Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference Tournament semifinal.

Meyer started the scoring less than two minutes into the contest and two tallies from Carr and one from Kuwahara put the home team on top 4-0 late in the first quarter. Junior Emma Sharp answered the Raiders' first goal of the game with one of her own with just three seconds remaining in the period.

Meyer, Carr, and Kuwahara each struck again in the first four minutes of the second to make the score 8-1. MSOE scored the final goal of the half with 7:26 on the clock and Lake Forest led 8-2 at the break.

The visitors accounted for two of the three goals in the third period with sophomore Ella Maher converting a man-up opportunity for the Foresters.

The Raiders also netted the initial goal in the fourth to make it a 9-5 game. After a Lake Forest timeout, Kuwahara, Sharp, Maher, Carr, and Meyer added to the lead during a six-minute span and Carr tacked on one more for her career-high fifth goal and sixth point of the day.

Forester junior goalkeeper Cecilia Adams stopped 10 of the Raiders' 16 shots on goal in the contest and surpassed 100 goals on the season.

Junior Isabel Bersie led the home team with five ground balls and matched Maher and Kuwahara with a team-high three caused turnovers. Kuwahara secured five draw controls, including the 200th of her career, and she is now just three shy of the program record of 205.

The victory was the Foresters' eighth in a row and raised their record on the year to 13-4. MSOE finished the 2025 season with a mark of 6-12.

Lake Forest will host the winner of the other semifinal between Edgewood College and host Aurora University in Saturday's NACC Tournament final.
