Men's Lacrosse Downs Emmanuel in 16-10 Road Final

Box Score

THE BASICS: 

- Score: MIT 16, Emmanuel 10

- Records: MIT (4-2); Emmanuel (1-5)

- Location: Boston, Mass. (Clemente Field)

- The Lead: In non-conference play on a blustery Thursday evening, the MIT men's lacrosse team ran its winning streak to three straight with a 16-10 road win at Emmanuel College. The win was the first road victory of the season for the Engineers, who are now 4-0 all-time vs. the Saints.

HOW IT HAPPENED:

- MIT jumped out to a quick 3-1 lead with 5:58 left in the first quarter as junior Mitch Turley (Westfield, Ind.) picked up his second goal of the game. After Emmanuel's Charlie Moran scored a man-up goal for the 3-2 margin just over a minute later, the Engineers went on a 6-1 run for the 9-3 lead as junior Graham Davis (Crofton, Md.) found the back of the net with 1:09 left before the break. The Saints scored twice over the last 37 seconds though, making it just a 9-5 margin at the half.

- The third quarter was even at 3-3 as Moran scored his second man-up tally of the game to send the contest into the final 15 minutes at 12-8 in favor of MIT. Emmanuel cut it to a 13-10 margin on an unassisted score from Tony Cibelli late, but the Engineers used a pair of goals from senior Harris Stolzenberg (Weston, Fla.) to close on a 3-0 run for the 16-10 victory. 

INSIDE THE NUMBERS:

- Stolzenberg registered a four-goal, two-assist game as four Engineers finished with a hat trick. Freshman Jack Strachan (Moresville, N.C.) finished with three goals and one assist, while Davis had three goals and two assists and Turley added a hat trick and one assist.

- For the Saints, Morgan had a four-goal, two-assist outing to go along with two goals each from Cibelli and Donnie Litzelman.

- Sophomore Alexander Lynch (Roswell, Ga.) earned the win with a seven-save effort, while Austin Rosenberg took the loss for the Saints as he made 18 stops.

- MIT was successful on 18-of-22 clear attempts in the game while outshooting the Saints by a 47-30 overall margin. The Engineers forced 22 Emmanuel turnovers and held a 26-23 edge in ground balls as well.

UP NEXT:

- MIT is back in action on Tuesday, March 28th as the Engineers travel to Colorado College for a 5 p.m. Eastern time start in Colorado Springs, Colo.
