Lacrosse slates their 11th straight win in the 2018 season
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Boston College lacrosse slated a 13-9 victory over Yale Tuesday afternoon for the longest win streak in program history.
Â
A low-scoring first half sent BC (11-0, 2-0) into half time with a one-goal deficit. After the Bulldogs (6-3, 2-0) netted the first goal of the second frame, the Eagles sprang into action. A natural hat trick from junior Sam Apuzzo took the final lead for the Eagles, which they did not relinquish.
Â
In this 11th straight win, Apuzzo and junior Dempsey Arsenault registered five points apiece after the Eagles posted a 10-point second half.
