PHILADELPHIA - Brendan Morgan
scored a game-high three goals and dished out two assists as
Drexel University earned a spot in the upcoming Colonial
Athletic Association men's lacrosse tournament while
knocking the University of Delaware out with a 10-7 win over
the Blue Hens Wednesday afternoon.
The Blue Hens suffered their fourth
straight loss to fall to 5-9 overall and remain winless in
CAA play with a mark of 0-4. The loss knocked the Blue Hens
out of contention for one of four spots in the CAA playoffs
which will be held April 30 and May 3 at higher seeds.
Delaware, which is now 0-10 in two seasons in the CAA, has
lost all of its games this season by five goals or less,
including five by three goals or less.
Delaware junior Matt Alrich upped
his team and league-leading goal total to 32 as he netted
two goals to pace the Blue Hens. Scott Evans also
scored twice while Xander Ritz notched a goal and two
assists and Bob Meunier scored once and collected one
assist. Goalkeeper Chris Collins posted 12 saves.
Alrich's goal total of 32 is the most for a UD player since
All-American John Grant scored 56 during the 1999
NCAA quarterfinal season.
The Dragons, who defeated Delaware for
the second straight year after the Hens had won 23 straight
games in the series, also got two goals each from Jarett
Mizzi and Jesse Rumble and a goal and two assists from Sean
Moloney. Goalkeeper Ryan Harney was tough in the nets,
posting 15 saves as the Hens outshot the Dragons
37-31.
Drexel broke a 3-3 tie by scoring two
goals in the final three minutes of the first half to take a
5-3 lead into intermission. Morgan scored one of the goals
and assisted on the other by Moloney.
After Drexel took a three-goal lead early
in the third quarter, the Hens cut the lead to 6-4 on a goal
by Evans with 11:22 left in the third stanza. After the
teams traded goals, Drexel then reeled off three straight
goals to increase its lead to 10-5. Delaware scored twice in
the final quarter but could never get closer.
Delaware will close out the season this
Saturday when the Blue Hens travel to CAA foe Villanova for
a 7 p.m. game.
