The Garnet netted 18 unanswered goals and remained undefeated through four games this season.

Swarthmore (4-0) established control early by getting four unassisted tallies from four different players in the opening 10 minutes of play. Seniors Corinne Sommi, Lucy Whitacre and Emma Sipperly as well as sophomore Lizzie Kolln all found the back of the net. Sommi then netted three goals in a row and the Garnet led 13-0 at the break thanks in part to an Upton marker with exactly one minute on the clock that capped the offensive barrage.

After three different players found the cage, Perry-Freer completed a streak of 18 unanswered goals for Swarthmore by posting an unassisted tally with just 4:12 to play. Bryn Mawr was able to avoid being blanked by getting a marker from senior Kathleen Magner with 2:59 left.

Sommi finished with a game-high seven points on five goals and two assists. Sophomore Connie Bowen picked up the victory without having to make a save due in large part to a defense being anchored by junior Samantha Reichard and sophomore Tazmin Bailiff-Curtis.

In addition to Magner, Bryn Mawr (1-3) was also paced by junior Alyssa Young and freshman Katie Alpert. Young recorded four ground balls and two caused turnovers, while Alpert made seven saves between the pipes.
