DOVER, Del. – The Presbyterian College lacrosse program is now 9-0 all-time against non-conference opponent Delaware State, stinging the Hornets by an 18-10 final margin on Saturday night for PC's second victory of the season.

Both wins by head coach Eric Clakeley's squad in 2026 have come by the exact margin of eight points (having also knocked off New Haven 15-7 at Bailey Memorial Stadium).

The offense was working like a well-oiled machine against their neighbors to the north, publishing seven 1^st-quarter connections and scoring 16 times after three periods.

Senior Alyssa Perez led the way in the goals department for the Blue Hose with five (all in the opening half), while Emily Currie added three makes and rookie Rose Dennstaedt contributing two.

PC is in the middle of a week-long road swing over Spring Break, as they remain away from home in their next appearance: a Tuesday matchup with Fairleigh Dickinson that is scheduled for 11:00 AM.
