| The Game Story: | BALTIMORE, MD -- A late University of Delaware comeback fell just short
Saturday as the Blue Hens dropped a 9-6 decision to host Loyola in a
non-league men's lacrosse game at Curley Field.
Delaware (1-1), which opened the 2003 season last Saturday with a 16-9
win over Saint Joseph^Òs, fell behind 8-3 early in the fourth quarter and
battled back to within two goals with 2:20 left to play before the
Greyhounds prevailed. Loyola, playing its season opener, continued its
dominance over Delaware by downing the Hens for the 17th straight time
since 1973. Three of the last seven games have been decided by three
goals or less.
Ryan Overs and Matt Alrich each scored two goals for the Blue Hens while
Jon Kallis and Andy Hipple also tallied goals. Chris Collins posted nine
saves in goal for the Hens, who held a 34-27 advantage in shots and a
41-40 advantage in groundballs.
Stephen Brundage led the Greyhounds with three goals and an assist while
Chris Summers contributed two goals and Gunnar Goettelmann added a goal
and two assists. Loyola goalkeeper Mark Bloomquist had a big game,
stopping 15 Blue Hens shots while allowing just six goals.
Delaware managed 19 first half shots, but connected on just two goals as
Loyola took a 5-2 lead into intermission. Overs pulled Delaware to
within 6-3 with 7:37 left in the third quarter, but Loyola^Òs Ryan Fisher
scored with just five seconds left in the stanza and Jim Fink scored an
extra man goal just over a minute into the final quarter to put the lead
at 8-3.
The Blue Hens rallied from there as Overs scored an extra man goal and
Alrich scored both of his goals in a span of three minutes and 32
seconds, the final one with 2:20 left that cut the lead to 8-6. Loyola
then iced the game as Brundage scored his game-high third goal of the
game with 1:30 remaining to open the three-goal advantage.
Delaware will return to action Saturday, March 1 when the Hens host
Rutgers at 1 p.m. at Rullo Stadium.
