Men's Lacrosse Wins Final Non-Conference Game

HANOVER, Ind. - The Benedictine University men's lacrosse team finished the non-conference portion of the schedule with a road win over Hanover College.

FINAL SCORE
Benedictine 17, Hanover 11

THE DETAILS
• Hanover scored the first two goals of the contest to open an early lead
• Dell Hune scored the first Benedictine goal unassisted at the 12:38 mark of the first
• Hune scored again just over two minutes later to tie the game
• The goals from Hune were part of a run that saw Benedictine tally five straight goals to grab control of the contest, four of which came from Hune
• With 9:22 to play in the opening quarter Tony DePinto found the back of the net to give Benedictine the lead
• The hosts tallied the final two goals of the half to pull within 8-7 at the intermission
• Matthew Johnson opened a string of five straight goals in the third quarter as Benedictine gained separation
• The 17 goals marked a season high

FROM THE COACH
"It was nice to see the offense come up big today," head coach Guy Bourdon said. "Even though we scored 17 goals, I feel we left a few on the field. This unit will need to continue to come up big if we want to realize our goals for the season. Defensively, I was happy with Jeff's play in cage. He kept us in it until our close defense got their act together. The defense as a whole played much better in the second half."

STAT LEADERS
• Benedictine won despite being outshot 44-41 and with Hanover holding a 36-26 groundball advantage
• Hune paced Benedictine with five goals while DePinto notched four and an assist
• Johnson scored four goals on 16 shots while adding three assists
• Jamic Adkins caused three turnovers on defense
• Jeffrey Smitheram amassed 16 saves while collecting four groundballs
