NORTH CANTON, OH: It may be a new season, but the Walsh Women's Lacrosse Team picked up right where last season ended, winning. The three time G-MAC Champions hosted the Daemen Wildcats in a rainy and wet home opener, Thursday afternoon. The sky may have been gloomy but the Cavs were not as they won in dominating fashion, 15-5. The team got right to business in the opening quarter, scoring six goals.
