SPARTANS TAKE CHARGE IN WIN OVER EAGLES
ST. LOUIS – The Missouri Baptist men's lacrosse team took an early lead to take down Robert Morris University 15-2 on a sunny Satuday afternoon.
Dan Mollet started things off in the first quarter for MBU. Missouri Baptist (4-3) scored three more times in the quarter to advance their lead to 4-0.
Dan Mollet with a hot stick, scored his third goal of the game and advanced the Spartans to 5-0. Robert Morris notched their first goal of the game to reduce the deficit back to four.
Missouri Baptist held a commanding lead at the half and came back in the third quarter wanting more.
The Spartans came out with two more goals in the fourth quarter and solidified the lead. Although Robert Morris scored another goal before time was up MBU had built too much of a lead for the Eagles to gain any kind of advantage.
Aaron McClintock led MBU with five goals. Dan Mollet (4), Chase Hammernick (2), Austin Dahl (2), Tim Borroff (1), and Lorisio Mehmeti (1) also found the back of the net for the Spartans.
Goalie Ben Bowler came up big for Missouri Baptist holding the Eagles to two goals with 15 saves on the game.
MBU will now travel to St. Ambrose University on Friday, March 27.
