UTICA, N.Y. – The third-ranked Ithaca College men's lacrosse team kept its undefeated record intact on Saturday afternoon, powering past Utica College for a 19-2 win at Gaetano Stadium in Utica, N.Y. The win improved IC's record to 8-0 on the year, while it is now 2-0 in Empire 8 play. The Bombers' offense, which entered Saturday as the third-most potent attack in NCAA Division III at 16.71 goals per game, continued to hum against the Pioneers on Saturday. IC tallied 19 goals for the fourth time this season, racing out to a big early lead and keeping the pressure on throughout in the lopsided win. The third-best point-per-game offense in the country at 27.71 racked up 36 on Saturday, as Ithaca had 14 different players record a point in the contest. Headlining the attack was junior Jake Cotton and sophomore Josh Della Puca, as each tallied seven points in the contest. Cotton scored a goal and dished out a season-high six assists, while Della Puca finished with three goals and four helpers. Senior John Januszkiewicz also showed signs of breaking out of his early season funk, netting his first hat-trick of the season in a three-goal effort. Stephen Morrell, Tyler Krampf and Kaelan Fitzpatrick each joined Januszkiewicz in recording three points. Morrell scored twice and added an assist, while Fitzpatrick flipped the line with one goal and two assists. Krampf distributed three helpers.

Will Witter, Winston Wenham, Doug Hill, Owen Smith, Brendan King and Conner Crosson each netted a scoring tally for IC. Jack Deragon continued to hold down the starting spot in the cage for IC. He finished with eight saves in 48:11 of game action, before turning the net over to Justin Isaacs for the final 11:49. The win improved Deragon's record to 7-0 on the year. Ithaca held nearly a 2-to-1 advantage (15-for-23) in the faceoff circle, which it translated into a significant possession advantage throughout the contest. The Bombers made the most of it, putting on a shooting display, which registered 59 shot attempts and 38 shots on goal in the game. Ithaca came into the game with a 43-to-9 scoring advantage in the first quarter. That margin continued to widen on Saturady, as IC hit the Pioneers with an early four-goal scoring run en route to taking a 6-1 lead through 15 minutes. King, Della Puca and Shumway scored goals over a 3:08 span, while Januszkiewicz capped the streak with 6:58 left in the period.
