Apuzzo Reaches 200 Career Points in Win at San Diego State
March 10, 2018 | Lacrosse
SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The Boston College lacrosse team secured their ninth straight victory, producing the second longest win streak in program history, after downing San Diego State, 19-8, to close out its time in California.
Â
Junior Sam Apuzzo scored less than two minutes into the opening half, sparking four other unanswered goals from the Eagles (8-0, 1-0), while the BC defense held San Diego State (5-3, 0-0) to only three first-half goals.
Â
Coming out of the break already on a 9-3 advantage, the Eagles held the lead for the remainder of the game, though the Aztec offense brought more heat during the second portion of the game.
Â
Handing the Aztecs their first home loss on the season, junior goalkeep Lauren Daly tied her career high with nine saves.
