Game Notes

            The Riverhawk men's lacrosse team picked up their second conference (MDJUCO) win of the season this past weekend, defeating the Fighting Owls of Harford Community College, 8-2.

            Playing at home, the Riverhawks quickly took control of their field as Nicholas Karnes (Catherine, VA/Battlefield) would win the first face off giving Seth Camphouse (Odenton, MD/Northeast) the opportunity to quickly grab the lead just 49 seconds in. Karnes would continue to absolutely dominate the face-off x, and the Riverhawk offense would not let him down – scoring 4 more goals before the first quarter would expire. Keeping Harford off the board, William Harrison (Chandler) between the pipes along with the Riverhawk defense – AACC would shut down Fighting Owl efforts, to lead 5-0.

            The momentum would continue to build for AACC and although the Fighting Owls would get themselves on the board in the 2^nd quarter scoring twice, it would be the only goals scored for Harford for the remainder of the contest.

            Karnes would go on to finish with a perfect game (14-14) at face-offs while also grabbing 9 ground balls, and Chandler would finish with 16 saves on the day. William Dion (Annapolis, MD/Annapolis) and Jordan Kopf (Annapolis, MD/Annapolis) would each finish with 2 goals on the day, and Camphouse, Joseph Niles (San Antonio, TX/Northeast), Zachary Gussman (Lake Mary, FL/Lake Mary), and Stephen Moheiser (Annapolis, MD/Annapolis) would all score 1 with 2 assists credited to Camphouse, and 1 assist credited to Gussman.  

            The Riverhawks are now ranked 5^th in the nation.
