| Cardinals Can't Hold Off Nationally Ranked Geneseo in Fourth PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. - Visiting Geneseo State used a strong fourth quarter to pull away from a pesky Plattsburgh State squad on a soggy Saturday afternoon at the Fieldhouse Complex, taking a 12-5 victory in the State University of New York Athletic Conference men's lacrosse opener for both schools. The 19th-ranked Blue Knights improve to 6-1 while the Cardinals dip even to 5-5 on the year. Mike Cintineo led Geneseo with five goals and an assist, and Craig Lange added a goal and four assists. Luke Weidlein (hat-trick), Patrick Wright and Jimmy Tenny scored for the Cardinals. With Geneseo leading 7-3, Weidlein scored back-to-back goals with a man-down with 25 seconds left in the third quarter and at even strength 1:47 into the fourth to pull Plattsburgh within 7-5. But the Blue Knights' offense responded with five unanswered goals to end the game and the defense stifled a Plattsburgh attack that is one of the nation's top offensively. Tom Costanza scored consecutive goals 58 seconds apart about a minute after Plattsburgh's last tally to ignite a five-goal fourth quarter. Matt Billia tied a career-high with 20 saves in a Plattsburgh uniform, facing 43 shots from Geneseo. Dennis Costanza, who allowed a season-low five goals, made 16 saves for the Blue Knights, who allowed 33 shots.
