WATERVILLE — The Regis College women’s lacrosse team scored eight unanswered goals to close the first half and never looked back in a 14-8 victory over Thomas in non-conference game Thursday at Smith field.

The Terriers got off to a quick start behind goals from Gardiner graduate Jenn Day and Brittany Premo, but the Pride took over from there to take an 8-2 lead at the break. Thomas (4-2, 3-1 North Atlantic Conference) drew as close as 10-6 with 14 minutes, 56 seconds remaining on a goal from Samantha Greenlaw, but could not cut into the deficit any further.
