HUNTINGDON, Pa.- The Juniata women's lacrosse team suffered a 17-3 loss to visiting #7 Catholic, Saturday afternoon at a loud Gibbel Stadium as the fans made their presence felt at their first lacrosse game in more than a year. 

Grace Gibbs (Arnold, Md. / Broadneck HS) had all three of the Eagle goals to go with five draw controls. Zoe Watson (Felton, Pa. / Redline, Pa.)  made 17 saves in goal while scooping up six ground balls. 

The Cardinals game soaring out to start the match as they tallied three goals in the opening two minutes. Gibbs sliced through the defense to put the Eagles on the board, but Catholic kept coming. 

The visitors tallied four more goals before Gibbs's second, with 12:17 in the half made it 7-2. The Cardinals scored the final three goals of the half to make it 10-2. 

Catholic managed five goals across the opening 19 minutes as Watson made several strong saves to prevent further damage.  

Gibbs scored her final goal of the day on a free position shot to make it 15-3, and Catholic scored two more in the final seven minutes to complete the scoring.  

Juniata Women's Lacrosse team dedicated the game to the mission of the One Love Foundation. The team wore warm-up shirts with the One Love Foundation logo and encourages fans to learn more about and consider donating to the Foundation by visiting www.joinonelove.org.

The One Love Foundation, which was founded in 2010, educates young people about healthy and unhealthy relationships, empowering them to identify and avoid abuse and learn how to love better. One Love was founded in honor of Yeardley Love, a senior at the University of Virginia whose life was tragically cut short when she was killed by her ex-boyfriend. The family learned during the trial that her death could have been prevented had they recognized the signs of an abusive relationship. To date, One Love has educated, empowered, and activated over 100 million people with its compelling content.
