Cal Poly Wins Seventh Consecutive US Lacrosse WDIA Championship

DENVER – Brittany Jones scored eight goals to lead Cal Poly to a 16-9 victory over Navy in the championship game of the 2007 US Lacrosse Women’s Division Intercollegiate Associates championship at the University of Denver. The championship was the seventh consecutive for Cal Poly, which is now 25-0 all-time in US Lacrosse WDIA tournament play.

Cal Poly, which had to come back from a four-goal deficit in its semifinal victory over Colorado State, led from start to finish. The Mustangs scored the first six goals of the game with Jones, and her sister Janelle, doing most of the damage. Brittany Jones had three goals in the opening spurt and Janelle Jones had two goals and an assist.

Navy scored three of the last four goals of the first half, all by Mary Ruttum, to get within 7-3 at the half, but the Mids were unable to carry over the momentum into the second half. Julie Friesen and Brittany Jones scored goals for Cal Poly in the opening three minutes of the second half.

Navy pulled to within 11-7 on Erin Rawlick’s third goal of the game with 11:22 to play, but Brittany Jones’ seventh goal of the game ignited a three-goal Cal Poly run that put the game out of reach.

Brittany Jones was named the tournament’s Outstanding Offensive Player. Cal Poly’s Jamie Oetman was named the Outstanding Defensive Player.
