The University of Mary Washington men's lacrosse team dropped a 10-5 decision at Haverford College on Saturday afternoon. The Eagles slip to 4-3 on the season.

The Eagles got on the scoreboard first, as Reece Stone scored on a Tanner Boone assist with 11:18 left in the first quarter. But the Fords responded with three tallies to close out the first with a 3-1 advantage.

Haverford scored three straight to open the second quarter, appearing to take a 6-1 lead to halftime after scoring with ten seconds left. But UMW's Jacob Fowler scored on a Stone assist after winning the faceoff to move the margin to 6-2 at intermission.

The Eagles climbed back into the game in the third, starting with a James Milligan goal assisted by Boone at 9:42. Antonio Zeno followed with another score at 8:18, and Vince Reaver added another four minutes later on an assist from A.J. Lembo to pull the Eagles to within 6-5. But the Fords scored once to close the third, and three more in the fourth, for the victory.

Haverford led in shots, 37-30, as well as ground balls, 41-37. UMW goalkeeper Ryan D'Angelo made nine saves on the day.

The Eagles will be back in action on Wednesday when they visit Catholic University at 6:00 p.m.
