• The Short Story: Undefeated and eighth-ranked Michigan got a game-high six goals from Caitlin Muir to hand the 18^th-ranked Johns Hopkins women's lacrosse team a 16-11 loss in Big Ten action Saturday afternoon.
 
How it Happened
• Hopkins jumped out to a 4-1 lead by the midway point of the first half with goals from four different Blue Jays. Sophomore Shelby Harrison opened the scoring with a free position goal at the 26:57-mark. Senior Miranda Ibello then slipped a pass to junior Maggie Schneidereith, she ducked under her defender and scored on a low sidearm shot.
• Nadine Stewart answered with a goal right off the draw as the Wolverines cut the lead in half at 21:41. The Blue Jays answered with back-to-back goals from sophomore Aurora Cordingley and junior Lexi Souder and Hopkins lead was 4-1 with 15:45 to play in the half.
• Chandler Kirby made it a two-goal game when she scored off the dodge at 13:27. Three minutes later, senior Nicole DeMase dodged from behind the cage, dipped inside her defender and scored from in-tight with 13 seconds left on the possession clock to stake Hopkins to a 5-2 lead.
• Caitlin Muir scored off the dodge with 7:41 to play to spark a five-goal Michigan run that bridged halftime and gave the home team a 7-5 lead. Muir fueled the run with three of the five goals, including the go-ahead goal with 14.8 seconds to go in the first half.
• Harrison ended the run, and snapped a scoreless drought of more than 15 minutes for the Blue Jays, with her second of the game at 25:14. She dodged down the right alley, spun on her defender and blew a left-handed shot home to pull the Blue Jays within one. The teams would then trade goals over a seven-minute span and Michigan led 9-8 with 16 minutes to play.
• Kane scored back-to-back goals just 38 seconds apart and just like that the lead was three. The Blue Jays pulled back within two with a transition goal at the 12:00-mark. Redshirt senior Ellie McNulty caused a turnover on the defensive end and some tic-tac-toe passing led to a Schneidereith goal on the doorstep.
• Michigan responded with five goals in seven minutes to push out to a 16-9 lead with 3:43 still to play. Cordingley ended the run with a free position goal just 29 seconds later. Ibello then took a feed from DeMase, who had drawn a free position shot, and scored from in tight with just 41.3 seconds remaining.
 
What it Means
• Hopkins falls to 3-1 all-time against Michigan, including 1-1 in Ann Arbor. All three of the Blue Jays' losses this season have come to ranked teams.
• Ibello now ranks 11^th in school Division I history with 152 career points, while Schneidereith is tied for 12^th with 149 career points. Schneidereith notched her seventh hat trick of the season and extended her point streak to 20 games. Her assist streak was snapped at 11 games, the fourth longest in school Division I history.
