Ithaca, NY - Rachel Moody tallied a career-high five goals and Emily Tripodi notched six assists to set a new Cornell record in the Big Red's thrilling 18-17 Senior Day win over Boston University (6-9) Saturday afternoon at Schoellkopf Field.
Courtney Gallagher made six saves - including several key stops in the game's final minutes - to improve to 7-3 on the season; it was her tenth career win for the Big Red (10-5).
BU's Danielle Etrasco and Kristen Mogavero combined for eight goals and four assists on the afternoon.
In a see-saw battle, the Terriers grabbed a 12-10 lead with just under four minutes to go in the first half. Moody would score her first of the game with 2:12 to go, and then scored her second off an assist from Tripodi to knot the game at 12 with 13 seconds left until halftime.
Less than 90 seconds into the second half, Tripodi assisted Moody again for a 13-12 Big Red lead. The Terriers then scored four of the game's next five goals for a 16-14 lead with 16:15 remaining.
Cornell then went on a game-winning four-goal run that included two more goals by Moody; both were assisted by Tripodi to give her 36 assists on the season, breaking the previous record of most assists in a season in Cornell history (34).
BU's Sydney Godett scored with 1:19 left to draw the Terriers to within one, but could not get the equalizer.
The Red move on to the Ivy League Tournament next weekend, taking on top-seeded Penn Friday night, with the winner playing either Dartmouth or Princeton Sunday for the Ivy League championship and an automatic berth into the NCAA tournament.
Gallagher was one of six seniors honored before what was their last home game in Cornell uniforms. She was joined by Caroline Salisbury, Kate Ivory, Veronica Lizzio, Lauren Halpern and Kelly Lang.
