WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. – The Monmouth University women's lacrosse team bounced back in a big way with a 16-8 victory over visiting Campbell on Sunday afternoon at Kessler Stadium.

Danielle McNeely's eight-point afternoon paved the way for an offensive outburst that included her four-goal performance, a hat trick by Caroline Brennan and two goals each from Mya Brock, Maddie Flynn, Sophia Lymberis and Shea Berigan.

It was Campbell that got out to a fast start with three of the game's first four goals, before Monmouth responded with a run of five straight to take a 6-3 advantage. The lead ballooned to 9-4 early in the second half before Campbell pulled within three with 13:54 remaining.

The Hawks answered by scoring the next six goals over a six-minute stretch to put the game out of reach and eventually came away with the eight-goal triumph.
