Men's Lacrosse Falls at #4 Union in Regular Season Finale

Dutchmen post 22-4 victory over Brewers in Liberty League action

SCHENECTADY, NY – Powered by goals from 15 different scorers, the Union College men's lacrosse team posted a 22-4 victory over Vassar College in the Liberty League regular season finale for both teams. The fourth-ranked Dutchmen are now 14-1 overall and 6-1 in league action, while the Brewers conclude their 2022 campaign with a 7-7 mark, going 2-5 in the Liberty League.

Union opened the game's scoring with a 6-0 run in the opening quarter, but the Brewers answered in the second frame as senior midfielder Logan Hyde recorded his 21st of the season to make it a 7-1 score at 13:03. The Dutchmen answered with six straight goals, but Vassar countered with 1:54 to play as junior midfielder Riley Olds dropped in his 23rd of the year.

Sophomore middie Ryan Metz then converted a pass from rookie Van Ledermann less than a minute later to send the teams into halftime with Union up, 13-3.

The Brewers added their fourth goal of the game less than a minute into the third quarter as rookie attack Shane O'Hara collected a pass from sophomore attacker Troy Santise. Despite that momentum, the Dutchmen went on a 9-0 run over the next two frames to wrap up the scoring.

For Union, Hayden Frey dropped in three goals with four assists, adding two ground balls with a caused turnover. Peter Burnes had three goals with three helpers, while Peter Kip, Matt Belluche and Jake Titus each had two goals. Sam Byrne went 14-of-19 in the faceoff circle with 11 ground balls, while Matthew Paolatto was 7-of-10 from the circle with six ground balls. In goal, Dan Donahue earned the win with one save over 30 minutes, while Reed Karaska came on in relief, making eight stops.

Four different scorers paced the Brewers, while junior long stick midfielder Dillon Dierman was 4-of-11 from the faceoff, while rookie faceoff Holden Anderson was 3-of-9 in the circle. Sophomore defender Solomon Hess scooped up seven ground balls and had a game-high four caused turnovers. In goal, junior Jack Bagin shouldered the loss with 13 saves over 40:31 minutes. Classmate Aidan Gallagher came on in relief, stopping three shots in 19:29.
