Third-Ranked Stevenson Too Much for Wooster

In what was likely its stiffest challenge of the season, The College of Wooster men's lacrosse team dropped a 19-3 decision to undefeated and No. 3 ranked Stevenson University Tuesday afternoon at Stevenson, Md.

Wooster (3-3) actually scored the game's initial goal when Alex Mies picked up a groundball and fired it into the net with 9:33 remaining in the first quarter. Stevenson (7-0) won the ensuing face-off and sprinted down field for a score just 13 seconds later, setting off a three-goal explosion over a 0:41 period.

The Mustangs would total 13 unanswered goals in all before the Fighting Scots' Tim Lee stopped the run with a tally, assisted by Chris Gatsch, at the 0:40 mark of the second quarter.

In the second half, Stevenson added to its lead by a 6-1 count, with Wooster's Mark Weschler closing the scoring with :43 remaining via a man-up goal.

The Scots will now return home from their East Coast spring break trip and will not return to competition until Saturday, March 28, when they kickoff North Coast Athletic Conference play with a game at 19th-ranked Denison University (2-1).
