MANCHESTER, NH - Sophomore Bryan Kaufmann (Putnam
Valley, NY) scored four goals while classmate
Kevin Hoagland (Glastonbury, Conn.) added two
scores to help lead the fourth-ranked Bryant University men's
lacrosse team to an 11-5 Northeast-10 Conference win at Saint
Anselm Saturday afternoon. The win, Bryant's eighth-straight,
improves the Bulldogs record to 8-2 on the season (7-0 in NE-10)
play heading into Tuesday's game at Merrimack College.
Against Saint Anselm on Saturday, the Bulldogs fell behind 2-0
midway through the first quarter, but goals by Corey
Crosbie (Salem, Mass.) and Brad Burton (Hauppauge,
NY) helped pull the Bulldogs even with the Hawks with
under four minutes left to play in the quarter.
Saint Anselm (4-7, 2-5 NE-10) would got back up by one thanks to
a Steve Trocki unassisted goal a minute later, but Kaufmann was
there to answer, scoring with 1:01 left in the quarter on an assist
from Bryan Molk (Peabody, Mass.).
Bryant would score the only two goals of the second, one by
Kaufmann and one from Hoagland to take a 5-3 lead into halftime,
but in the second half, the Bulldogs would score five unanswered
goals, two on the man advantage, to put the game away.
Kaufmann would tally a pair in the quarter while Jim Long
(Durham, NH) and Zach Rosenow (Oyster Bay,
NY) would add goals to help propel the offense.
Michael Kennedy (Port Jefferson Station, NY)
finished with 10 saves in the game as Bryant out-shot the Hawks 46
to 26 in the game. Tuesday's game at Merrimack is a
makeup from two earlier postponements due to rain. Face-off
Tuesday in North Andover, Mass. is at 7 p.m.
