CUI Caps Second-Straight Undefeated Regular Season
The Rundown: Concordia's men's lacrosse team pushed past UCI to complete their second-straight undefeated regular season. The Eagles started a bit sluggish, but made a big third quarter run to close out the Anteaters.
By the Numbers: Attackman Max Satossky continued his scoring ways, finishing with 7 goals while playing less than 3 quarters of the game.
The Difference: The Eagles were engaged in a tight contest early, as the Anteaters finished their second straight man up goal to make the score 4-3. CUI would pull it back together though, outscoring their opponent 19-3 the rest of the game.
Critical Plays: The CUI close defense flexed their muscle with 14 caused turnovers between them. Richard Andow highlighted this dominant play with 3 caused turnovers and 2 ground balls, earning him player of the game honors.
"We go into every game with the expectation that we are going to improve as a program," CUI head coach Ryan Brent said, "We faced some self-inflicted adversity early in this contest, but our captains and leaders were able to right the ship and that is a big positive we can take away from tonight."
What it means: The Eagles finish with their second-straight undefeated regular season and assure a first round bye in the SLC tournament. CUI has won 3 straight SLC Championships.
Up Next: CUI looks to make it 4 in a row as they await their challenger for the semifinals of the SLC Championships on April 30th.
