MCLA Lacrosse: BYU Men’s Lacrosse Defeats Colorado State 8-6 On April 7 After Losing To Colorado 11-9 On April 5

The #2 Colorado State Rams rallied from five down to make it a one-goal game in the fourth quarter against #3 Brigham Young but were unable to complete the comeback in a disappointing 8-6 loss to their Rocky Mountain Lacrosse Conference rivals on Saturday night.  BYU jumped out to leads of 4-0, 5-2 and 7-2 before CSU stormed back in the third quarter, but the Cougars held strong on defense to secure an important victory in the Rams’ annual Hall of Fame Game.

BYU, coming off a loss to #15 Colorado on Thursday night, was sharp early on, scoring on some transition opportunities and pinpoint shooting.  The Cougars led 2-0 before the game was barely three minutes old and fired home two more before the first quarter ended.  CSU finally got on the scoreboard with 2:18 remaining in the first quarter to stay within striking distance, but BYU’s damage had been done and CSU found themselves in the unfamiliar position of chasing their opponent all game long.

After a stalemate in the second quarter that gave BYU a 5-2 halftime advantage, the Cougars again came out firing to start the third, banging home two goals in the first four minutes of the quarter to give them their biggest lead of the game at 7-2.  But CSU finally found an answer, turning to senior midfielder Matt Jui (Columbine HS / Littleton, CO), who scored two goals in less than a minute to get the Rams back in the game.

MCLA Lacrosse: BYU Men’s Lacrosse Defeated Arizona State 14-10 On March 30

The BYU Men’s Lacrosse team (11-1, 1-0) defeated the Arizona State Sun Devils (8-5, 2-0) in a hard-fought win Friday night in Provo.

The game was the two teams’ first meeting since May 2011 when BYU overcame a four-point deficit to beat ASU in the MCLA Division 1 National Championship title game in Denver.

The game began with freshman middie Andrew Bertha scoring for BYU. Senior attack Corey Gunderson also scored for the Cougars, ending the first quarter of play with BYU up 2-0.

After almost six minutes into the second quarter, ASU scored their first goal of the game, to which Gunderson responded with another BYU goal. The teams continued to rally the score, tying the game at 3-3 then 4-4. BYU went into the half up 5-4.

The third quarter continued along the same pattern, with ASU leading 8-7 at one point. However, BYU was up 9-8 beginning the final quarter of play.

The fourth quarter allowed for BYU to score five goals while ASU scored two, leaving the Cougars with a final score of 14-10 and a victory over the Sun Devils.

“This was exactly what we expected against Arizona State,” said BYU Head Coach Matt Schneck. “Throughout the season, they’ve been holding teams to really low scores – five or six goals a game – so we’re really pleased that we were able score as much as we did against their defense and the best goalie in the country. This was a good test for our guys to go up against an extremely tough team like this and come out victorious.”

Arizona State Head Coach Chris Malone said he was proud of the way the Sun Devils played against BYU.

“I saw a lot of good things from our team defensively and offensively,” Malone said. “Unfortunately it took them six or seven minutes to realize that we can hang with these guys [BYU], and then they started making plays. I’ll give credit to BYU; they left it on the field and wouldn’t give up, they kept fighting.”

With the win over ASU, the Cougars improve their record to 11-1 for the season. The team looks forward to traveling to Colorado this weekend to face conference rivals University of Colorado and Colorado State University.
