GALLOWAY, N.J. -- Veandra Selby made 23 saves, but the Arcadia women's lacrosse team fell at Stockton 16-6 on Tuesday afternoon.
 
Selby's 23 saves marked a career high, but the Knights still slipped to 0-2 on the season while the Ospreys moved to 1-0.
 
Giovanna Raspanti gave the Knights an early 1-0 lead off a feed from Jess Kaye just under five minutes into the contest, and following three straight goals from the Ospreys gave Stockton a 3-1 lead, she cut the deficit to 3-2 at the 12:57 mark off an assist from Nicole Kress.
 
Stockton responded with four goals to close the first half and two more to open the second in taking a 9-2 lead with 27:24 left to play. Kress and Hannah McAllister answered back-to-back goals for AU that trimmed the Knights' deficit to 9-5, but a 7-1 run to close the game snuffed out any comeback hopes.
 
Selby made 14 saves in the first half and nine in the second as Arcadia was outshot 53-25, including 39-15 in shots on goal. Stockton held a 15-7 edge in draw controls and a 28-14 lead in ground balls.
 
Kress (1g/1a), Raspanti (2g) and Julia Imbert (2g) led the Knights with two points apiece. Kress also added a pair of draw controls, two caused turnovers and three ground balls.
 
Jennifer Toal (4g/1a) led the Ospreys with five points, and three ground balls. Michelle Pascrell scored four times, and Melanie Patterson won seven draw controls.
 
Arcadia will play host to Swarthmore on Thursday beginning at 7 p.m.
