March 10, 2012
Virginia Beach- After a tough loss to McDaniel a week earlier, the
Virginia Wesleyan men's lacrosse team put on an offensive
show in a route of the Saints of Marymount University 13-4.
The Saints would strike first in the 1st quarter with
a goal from Connor Kellog. The Marlins would answer back
with three straight goals contributed by Adam Nycz(East
Aurora, NY/Iroquios) and Joe Papetti(Edgewater,
Md/South River). The Saints would score one more from
Nico Burns to close the quarter with the Marlins leading
3-2.
The second quarter proved frustrating as the Marlins would
outshoot the Saints 10-1 only finding the net twice with goals from
Juniors Mikey Connors(Horseheads, NY/Horseheads)
and Andrew Adamson(Marriottsville, Md/Mount St.
Joseph). The Saints made their one shot count and scored
6:01 into the second quarter ending the half with the Marlins
leading 5-3.
The Marlins would come out the second half with a fire burning
as their offense exploded with 8 goals. The second half was led by
senior Travis Puls(Ellicott City, MD/Baltimore Mt. St.
Joseph) and Juniors Ian Shankland(Hampstead,
NC/John T. Hoggard).
The Marlins outshot Marymount 53-15 and held the Saints to one
goal in the second half. Senior Adam Nycz led the
marlins with 4 goals and 2 assist on the day, and Junior
Andrew Adamson contributed 3 goals and 2
assist.
