SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. – The seventh ranked Slippery Rock University women's lacrosse team cruised to a 24-2 win over Edinboro Wednesday in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Western Division game from Mihalik-Thomspon Stadium.
 
The Rock jumped out to an 11-0 lead in the first quarter and pulled their starters midway through the second on the way to improving to 14-0 overall and 7-0 in the PSAC West with the win. Edinboro dropped to 3-11 overall and 0-7 in the PSAC with the loss.
 
The win extended Slippery Rock's current winning streaks to 24 straight regular season games, 21 straight PSAC West games, 19 straight home games and 24 straight games in the series with Edinboro.
 
The Rock were dominant in all phases Wednesday and finished with advantages of 51-5 in total shots, 41-3 in shots on goal, 22-6 in draw controls and 24-20 in ground balls. SRU was a perfect 5-for-5 on clear attempts and limited Edinboro to just 3-of-17.
