BOULDER — The Colorado lacrosse team starts a three-game homestand Sunday, February 27, by hosting Ohio State at Kittredge Field. Opening draw is slated for 1 p.m.

The Buffaloes enter the game 2-0. CU won its home opener against Louisville on February 11 (14-13), before heading east to face Harvard on the road in Cambridge, Mass. on February 20. There the Buffaloes recorded a decisive 12-6 win.

The Buckeyes are off to a 3-0 start, collecting wins against Robert Morris (17-5), Cincinnati (18-9) and Marquette (18-11). They will take on Denver on Friday, Feb. 25, before playing CU. This will be the first time CU and OSU will meet, but Ohio State head coach Amy Bokker is very familiar with Colorado as the former head coach at Stanford. She was the coach of the Cardinal when Colorado started its lacrosse program in 2014 and remained there until the end of 2019, facing Colorado and head coach Ann Elliott Whidden 14 times.

The game will be streamed live on Pac-12+. Thad Anderson will provide play-by-play and color for the content. The link to the stream, as well as live stats, is available at CUBuffs.com.

BOULDER –Sadie Grozier tied a career-best six goals for the second time in three games as the University of Colorado lacrosse team put together a solid win against Ohio State, 13-10, on Sunday afternoon at Kittredge Field.

Grozier, who leads CU with 15 goals this season, scored four times in the first quarter to help the Buffs build a 6-2 lead heading into the second frame. The Buffs continued to use their momentum and extended their lead to 9-3 at halftime.

"We were ready to play," head coach Ann Elliott Whidden said. "We pushed transition in the beginning (of the game) which helped us get a couple of quick goals. We even had an opportunity to get a few more that the goalie made good saves on. I think that transition (play) was a big factor for us (as well as) going out there and being aggressive. At the end of the day, we need to play a little bit more aggressive in the second half than we did, but we'll work on that. (The players) know they've got to get better as we get ready for this Vanderbilt team."

The Buckeyes came back in the second half of the game, outscoring the Buffs 7-4. OSU cut CU's lead to just two goals late in the third quarter and the momentum seemed to be on its side.

But Colorado came together and scored goals at the right times to stop the OSU attack and CU's junior goalkeeper, Grace Donnelly, recorded a career-high 13 saves, some of which came at key moments, to allow the Buffs to step back into the driver's seat and finish the game for their second home win of the season.

"Grace did a great job today," Whidden said. "With each game, she's getting a little more confidence and a little bit more comfortable and played well for us today when we needed her to play well."

Overall the Buffs are 3-0, while OSU is now 3-2.
...

NOTEWORTHY: Colorado had seven goal scorers in the game and five different players had an assist.

UP NEXT: The Buffaloes host Vanderbilt and UC Davis next week to close out a three-game homestand. Vanderbilt will visit Kittredge Field on March 4, while UC Davis will be in Boulder on March 6.
