Elon vs. UNC Chapel Hill, 9-8 (Loss)
Elon Men’s Lacrosse fought a tough match against UNC Chapel Hill this past weekend at the opponent’s home field. In a game involving back to back scoring, Elon demonstrated some impressive plays as Jess Criswell scored an incredible quick shot with only three seconds left in the fourth quarter. With this goal and one other scored by Elon’s offense, the game was tied at 8-8 as the two teams went into overtime. With the stakes raised and the tension high, UNC Chapel Hill persevered by scoring four minutes into overtime, causing a 9-8 defeat over Elon. Though suffering a loss, Elon demonstrated great talent and will continue to work hard this week to prepare for the team’s game against UNC Greensboro on November 20, 2009.
