Senior Dene' DiMartino and freshman Miranda Ibello scored three goals each as the No. 17 Johns Hopkins women's lacrosse team rallied for an 11-8 win against Marquette in its season-opener at Homewood Field on Friday afternoon.

Marquette (0-1) jumped to a 3-0 lead in the game's first 13 minutes, getting six saves from goalie Sarah Priem in that span. Hopkins got on the board at the 15:12 mark on a goal by DiMartino, and Ibello scored her first career goal 72 seconds later.
The Golden Eagles led 6-4 early in the second half, but JHU (1-0) scored four consecutive goals in a 10-minute span to take control.
Emily Kenul and Haley Schweizer scored two goals apiece for the Blue Jays, and Jenna Reifler had three assists. Goalkeeper Caroline Federico made 11 saves.
