College Crosse Recaps.
Bellarmine vs. Detroit: The Titans’ Seth Mendell went off today as he bagged 6 goals to help lead Detroit to the 13-10 win over Bellarmine. The Knights sprinted out to 5-1 lead after one quarter, but Bellarmine was able to battle back to within 1 point (8-7) with 6 minutes to play in the 3rd. However, Detroit then went on a 5-3 run the rest of the way for the win.
Detroit’s Matthew Vangalen had a very good game, as he finished with 5 points (3 Gs & 2 As), while his teammates Alex Jarzembowski and Ben Gjokaj combined to win 18 of 27 face-offs. Bellarmine’s Jack Perkins (3 Gs) and Andrew Schoeneck (1 G & 3 As) played well for the Knights, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the early hole.
This was somewhat of a chippy game as both teams combined for 15 EMOs; Detroit capitalized on 5 goals out of 10 chances, while Bellarmine scored 2 goals on 5 EMOs.
Princeton vs. Hopkins: The Tigers absolutely smashed Hop today. Aided by a 10-0 run that stretched from 10:04 in the second quarter to 8:00 left in the 3rd quarter, Princeton completely ran Hop off the field. Princeton’s Austin Sims was unstoppable, as he finished with 7 points (6 Gs & 1 A). Additionally, Zach Currier was all over field as he won 15 of 19 face-offs, picked up 10 GBs, and assisted on 3 Princeton goals.
Tough day in goal for Hop’s Gerald Logan who only had 5 saves and allowed in 14 goals before he was pulled early in the 3rd quarter. Hop’s EMO unit was held scoreless in 4 opportunities. Princeton’s Tyler Blaisdell had a great day in goal, with 16 saves.
Ohio State vs. Marquette: OSU used a 9-0 run to power over Marqutte 12-6. Tre Leclaire had a big night for the Buckeyes with 3 goals. The OSU defense limited Marquette to only 1 second half goal after the game was tied 5-5 at halftime. Ohio State is now 5-0 to start the season for the first time since 1966.
