STEUBENVILLE, OH – The Medaille College Men's Lacrosse team opened their 2018 campaign on Saturday afternoon, traveling to Ohio to take on the Barons of Franciscan. While it was the first game of the year for the Mavericks it was the sixth of the season for the Barons, that additional work for Franciscan paced the Barons early and led to a 25-5 loss for the Mavs.
Franciscan opened the contest hot offensively taking a multi=-goal lead just minutes into the first quarter. Before the quarter ended the Mavs got two back, earning back-to-back goals from junior Tyler Fales (Batavia, NY, Batavia) and freshman Enrique Perez (Buffalo, NY, Hutch Tech). Perez' goal was the very first of his collegiate career while freshman David Cloy (Wilson, NY, Wilson) also earned his first career point in the first quarter, assisting on Fales' tally.
The Barons defense was stout all afternoon long, holding Medaille scoreless the rest of the first half and only allowing three goals to the Mavs in the second half.
Fales was a bright spot for the Mavericks though, scoring all three second half goals to give him four on the young season. Freshman Towi Oakes (Akwesasne, NY, Cornwall Collegiate) made 24 saves in net and Cloy added his second assist of the afternoon as Medaille fell to 0-1 on the season and 0-1 in AMCC play.
Medaille will be back in action next Saturday for their home opener against Alfred State at Nichols High School. Face off is scheduled for 1:00 pm.
