In her first three collegiate starts, Lyston has recorded a whopping 50 saves, which includes a program-record 23 against Elms College on Saturday, Sept. 7. The freshman's also made 12 stops against Dean College in the Falcons' season-opener, keeping the contest close in a hard-fought 3-1 Albertus setback.
