It didn't take long in her final women's water polo season for Becca Dabrowski to set the Fighting Scots' career scoring record, notching the historic goal in the second game of a four-game weekend.
     
Dabrowski nearly set the mark in Saturday's opener, a 15-9 loss to Redlands, ranked sixth in the Varsity Division III national poll. The senior netted all four of Scots' goals in the first half as Monmouth trailed 9-4 at the intermission. The Bulldogs slowly pulled away in the second half, holding Dabrowski to just one more goal, knotting her with Cassidy O'Connell for the Scots' all-time record at 156.
     
Monmouth fell behind early in the following match, a 24-10 loss to Virginia Military Institute, but Dabrowski netted her record-breaking goal at the 3:17 mark of the first period to overtake the record which had stood since 2016. VMI nursed an 11-6 lead into halftime and then blanked the Scots in the third quarter to pull away for the win, offsetting a six-goal effort from Dabrowski.
     
The Scots opened Sunday's play with a 13-10 win over Carthage as Dabrowski netted a game-high seven goals and freshman Skylar Rapp added four. Monmouth took the lead in the first quarter after the Lady Reds had knotted the game at 1-1. Emily Mathews' goal began a Monmouth three-goal run to end the period with a 4-1 lead. The Scots were never threatened after Dabrowski's third-quarter goal gave Monmouth a three-goal cushion at 7-4.
     
Marissa Logan netted two, first period goals in the weekend's getaway game, a 16-10 loss to No. 8 Macalester. Trailing 8-5 at the half, Monmouth closed the margin to 8-6 on the first of two Dabrowski goals in the third quarter, but that would be as close as Monmouth would get in the weekend's final game.
     
The Scots travel to Springfield, Ohio, this coming weekend for another four-game round robin. They open with Carthage and Macalester on Saturday before facing Austin College and Wittenberg Sunday.
