Syracuse Uses Six Goal Third Quarter to Escape Denver Rally, 13-12

Denver men’s lacrosse (4-4) returned to a sold-out Peter Barton Stadium to play under the lights Monday night. It was a rare matchup against #7 Syracuse, a side that had not traveled to Denver in 14 seasons. Coming off a narrow road loss to #8 Ohio State (6-4), the Pioneers had a chance to earn a statement win against the ranked Orange. At halftime, the score was close (6-5 Syracuse) but a six-goal Syracuse third quarter looked to bury Denver. However, the Pioneers rallied in the fourth quarter and forged a chance to tie the contest in the final minute. DU’s attempted game-tying shot bounced wide of the cage and Syracuse left with the win, 13-12. Continue reading Syracuse Uses Six Goal Third Quarter to Escape Denver Rally, 13-12

Denver Slips by Miami in Game One, 3-0

#7/#2 seed DU men’s hockey (22-11-3, 17-6-1) faced off in quarterfinal action against the #7 Miami Redhawks Friday night at Magness Arena. Under the new NCHC home playoff best-of-three format, Denver hosted the opening round Redhawks. A pesky Miami team trailed by a goal late in the third period and seized all the momentum. It took a spectacular sliding cross-crease save by goaltender Johnny Hicks and an empty-netter goal by Reiger Lorenz to pull away, 2-0. A bounding ricochet shot off the boards by Eric Jamieson at 18:57 finished off the Redhawks, 3-0. Continue reading Denver Slips by Miami in Game One, 3-0
