Mars Hill Loses at Wheeling Jesuit

WHEELING, WV - Freshman attacker Mark Greaney scored five goals and assisted on another to lead the #10 Wheeling Jesuit University (6-0) lacrosse team to an 11-6 victory over Mars Hill College (1-4) at a rain soaked James LaRosa Athletic Complex. Greaney, who has 15 goals on the season, started the game off by scoring on the feed from sophomore midfielder Mike McBride just under three minutes in the game.

The Cardinals would open up a 3-0 lead before Mars Hill scored their first goal of the afternoon. The Lions got on the board when senior midfielder Connor Jardeleza split the posts while crediting freshman midfielder Andrew Chapman with the assist. The Cards Mike McBride would later score his first goal of the day to close out the scoring in the first period of action, 4-1.

In the second, the Lions senior attacker Sean Humphreys scored the lone goal of the period to close the halftime gap to 4-2.

The Cardinals started the second half in the same fashion as they started the game by scoring four consecutive goals, two by sophomore midfielder Pat McMahon, to increase their lead 8-2. Mars Hill would not go away, however, adding three goals late in the third before Greaney scored his third goal with three seconds left to end the charge.

Each team added a goal in the fourth to bring the game to a close.

McMahon scored two goals followed by junior Brian Schmoldt, sophomores Mike McBride and Isaiah Fry each adding one goal a piece.

Senior goalkeeper and preseason First Team All-American Nick Asmo recorded four saves while sophomore goalie Stu Goss recorded eight saves.

SAPC Men’s Lacrosse Falls To Unbeaten Molloy, 13-4

LAURINBURG, NC—Mike Zabielski recorded four goals and four assists for the Molloy College men’s lacrosse team on Tuesday afternoon as the Lions defeated host St. Andrews Presbyterian College 13-4. Molloy remained perfect at 5-0 while the Knights fell to 4-4.

The Lions scored the first four goals of the game and never looked back. Molloy led 6-1 at halftime and carried the momentum to a nine-goal win.

The Knights, who are missing several players due to injury and illness, had four different goal scorers including Dalen Crouse, Kyle Weiher, Chris Stott, and Sean Jurecic.

Along with Zabielski, Molloy had four other multiple goal scores in the game including Tim Stevens with three and Dom Toscano, Marcelino Rosales, and Wilbert Mendoza with two each.

Goalkeeper Joseph Labella picked up the win making seven saves while only allowing two goals in his 54 minutes of work in net. Even though SAPC goalie Kevin Woods allowed 10 goals, he kept the game closer that it could have been with 14 saves.

St. Andrews will look to bounce back on March 24th when they travel to Deep South Conference rival Queens University of Charlotte. The Knights will try to improve on their perfect 3-0 DSC record at that time.
