Adrian, MI - The Hanover College Women's Lacrosse team took to the road to open their season, taking on the Bulldogs at Adrian College. HC enters the 2025 season coming off a 5-9 2024 campaign, lead by their first-team All-HCAC midfielder Abby Mensing.

The Panthers struggled to get going after letting Adrian jump out to a 6-0 first quarter lead. The quarter went on to end 6-0, and the Panthers looked to regroup.

To begin the second, HC came out hot as senior midfielder Anissa Weber found senior midfielder Abby Mensing, the first goal of the contest for the Blue & Red, and each of Weber's and Mensing's first points of their senior campaigns.

The rest of the game was a struggle and uphill battle as the Panthers just struggled to run with Adrian's depth. HC ultimately fell in the contest, 19-1.

Hanover aims to bounce back in their home-opener against Bethel University (IN) next Saturday, February 15th, with the opening-draw scheduled for 2:00PM EST.
