Boyce Named PL Attacker of Week, Bison of Week After 10-Goal Performance

LEWISBURG, Pa. – Sophomore Allie Boyce of the Bucknell women's lacrosse team earned Patriot League Attacker of the Week and Bison of the Week honors on Monday on the heels of her record-setting 10-goal game in Saturday's 20-11 win over American.
Boyce tied the school record for goals in a game, previously set by Hall-of-Famer Sue Gray against Northeastern in 1984. The 10 goals are the second-most scored by any Division I player this season – Mercer's Shannon Urey scored 11 against Wofford earlier in the week – and Boyce's total was one shy of the Patriot League record and just two away from the NCAA mark.
Not only did Boyce score 10 goals against the Eagles, she did it on perfect 10-for-10 shooting. She came into the game ranked No. 2 nationally in shot percentage, and she is now No. 1 in all of Division I lacrosse with an eye-popping .729 accuracy. Boyce also ranks second in the nation in free-position goals per game (1.46) and 17th in overall goals per game (3.31).
Seven of Boyce's 10 goals came in the first half to help the Bison to a 13-6 lead over the game's first 30 minutes. She now has 43 goals on the season, nine shy of Gray's 39-year-old Bucknell record. That is the fifth-highest single-season total in team history, and she is Bucknell's first 40-goal scorer since Emily Becker tallied 41 in 2016.
Saturday's win upped Bucknell's record to 6-7 on the season, and now the Bison host 10th-ranked Loyola on Wednesday at 5 p.m.
