Quakers Roll Past Washington and Jefferson Tuesday in Wilmington

(WILMINGTON, Ohio) – The Wilmington College men's lacrosse team won their second game in a row Tuesday afternoon inside Williams Stadium, an 11-8 victory over the Washington and Jefferson College Presidents.

The Quakers found themselves trailing on a pair of occasions in the contest but fought their way back and improved their overall record to 2-1 this season. They are back home in Wilmington for an afternoon game with Alma College Saturday.

Wilmington went up 2-0 early in the game on goals from Garrett Reigelsperger and Caleb Mann, before the Presidents took their first lead of the game with three unanswered strikes for a 3-2 advantage. The Quakers scored four of the next five goals for a 6-4 halftime lead, with three of these goals coming on man-up opportunities.

Their lead grew to 9-5 in the fourth quarter on an unassisted goal from Colin McLaughlin before the Presidents tried to make a comeback. They used three unanswered goals to cut the lead to one at 9-8. However, Wilmington got a pair of late tallies from Brock Fugate and Mann to hold them off for the win.
