SYRACUSE, NY - Junior Kim Wayne (Scarsdale, NY/Scarsdale) set a school record for most points in a game with 10 as Syracuse defeated Connecticut 19-11 on Saturday afternoon in the Carrier Dome.

Sophomore Danielle Lillis (West Islip, NY/West Islip) then found the back of the cage for her third hat trick of the season, and freshman Monica Joines (White Hall, MD/North Harford) followed with her third collegiate goal to make it 11-5.
