Sunday Feb. 21 the UTSA Men's lacrosse team was defeated by LSU 24-9.
Through most of the first half the teams were pretty evenly matched. In the first quarter LSU took and early 1-0 lead and were quick to extend it to 3-1. However as the quarter was winding down the Roadrunners seemed to come alive. Attacker Todd Walling was able to score twice and give the Roadrunners a one goal deficit.
The second quarter saw much of the same play with goalie Mark Foresman stepping up and blocking four attempts from LSU at the start of the quarter. Foresman was able to block many of LSU's attempts and again the Roadrunners were able to end the quarter only down one goal.
After halftime LSU started off the third quarter in an astounding fashion. Eight seconds into the third quarter LSU scored its eighth goal. After that things went downhill for UTSA. LSU scored six more times and left UTSA with a seven point deficit before the start of the fourth quarter.
In the fourth quarter LSU completely destroyed UTSA. The Roadrunners were able to score only twice whicle LSU was able to score 10 goals.
Although the results of the game were not what the team was looking for, there is still time left in the season to turn things around.
"There's a lot of things we need to work on. First of all ground balls and definitely clears" Head Coach Karl Fisher said.
The Roadrunners next home game will be March 27 against St. Edwards.
