The Men's Lacrosse Team lost a tough contest in Athens, Tennessee, where the Bees could not make up a 2 goal deficit against the scrappy Bulldogs of Tennessee Wesleyan College.  The match was close at the end of every quarter:  0-1 after the first quarter, 2-4 at the half, 4-6 after the third quarter, and finally 5-7 at the game's conclusion.
 
The Bees just could not get the extra two goals needed to carry the day.  Andrew Gualtieri provided 2 of the 5 scores, while Cody Sienkiewicz, Shawn Horsey, and Matt Dean furnished the three others, courtesy of assists by Evan Ruszala, Tucker Hotte, and Justin McGinnis. 
 
It was a very competitive match, with shots being close to even, ground balls in favor of the Bees at 35-33, and the saves by SCAD's goalie Billy Brennan and the Bulldogs' goalie Oscar Cifuentes being only 1 apart (9-10, respectively).  It could have been anyone's game to win, but the Bees came up a little short.
 
After starting the season at 4-0, the men have now lost two of their last three games by a margin of 2 goals in each.  It will be break of 19 days before the Bees return to action.  They will be travelling to Dayton, Ohio on March 19 where they will be facing the University of Dayton.  The Flyers are currently at 5-0 on the season.  The game is at 7 p.m.  Let's go Bees.
