LISLE, Ill. - The Benedictine University men's lacrosse team opened the 2015 season with a convincing victory over Calvin at home on Saturday, scoring a 20-1 decision.

Corbin Gett opened the scoring for Benedictine in the opening minute with an unassisted goal. Under three minutes later, Trevor Manzke made the score 2-0 by finishing a feed from Gett. Calvin scored with just under 10 minutes left in the opening quarter to pull within 2-1, but did not score again. Eric Orndorf netted a goal in a man-up situation to begin a string of 18 unanswered goals. Benedictine led 5-1 after the first quarter and held a 13-1 lead at the half.

Benedictine held a 58-6 advantage in shots and scooped up 46 groundballs. Nearly the entire roster took to the field in the season opening victory. Gett opened his college career by scoring four times and adding six assists with four groundballs. Orndorf scored four times with Blake Keenan adding three goals and four assists. Rudy Berg controlled the faceoff circle, winning 12 draws and notching 13 groundballs. All three netminders on the team saw the field for a time.
