Box Score

THROGGS NECK, N.Y. – After going down five goals in the first seconds of the fourth quarter, the Mount Saint Mary College men's lacrosse team (3-7, 1-3 Skyline) managed to score five of the game's next six goals to go down by just a goal with 4:53 to play. However, they were unable to score the tying goal despite nine shot attempts in the final minutes, eventually falling to Maritime College (5-9, 1-3 Skyline), 11-10, Wednesday evening at Reinhart Field.
 
The game was tight through the first half, as Maritime only led by one at 6-5 going into the break. The Privateers took a 3-0 advantage in the third quarter to go up 9-5, and added another goal just 23 seconds into the fourth to go up by five. The Knights battled back later in the fourth, led by junior midfielder Jake Robison (Franklin Square, N.Y.), who scored three of the Knights' five fourth-quarter goals. The Knights' momentum was riding at its highest in the final minutes of the game, but the Knights ran out of time before they could tie the game.
