Lynch led Colgate to a 61-47 victory against Army on Saturday, Feb. 6, their first victory against the Black Knights since 2006. She scored a team-high 15 points and pulled down six rebounds while shooting 5-12 from the floor and 5-7 from the free throw line.

The squad will wrap up their three-game home stand against Lafayette this Wednesday, Feb. 10 at 7 p.m. in Cotterell Court.
