Box Score

WAUKESHA, Wis. – Senior Brent Finnegan nearly doubled the school record for goals in a game with nine as the MSOE lacrosse team capped a standout 2015 campaign with a 20-1 victory over Carroll Saturday evening at Schneider Stadium.

Finnegan scored four goals in the opening quarter and twice more in the second as MSOE found the back of the net six times in each of the first two quarters for a 12-0 lead at halftime. It then scored the first two goals of the second half before Carroll got on the board to make it 14-1.

The Red & White finished strong with six goals in the final quarter.
