Ryan’s Seven Goals Lifts Wolves Over Lees-McRae

Wolves move to 2-0 on the season

Newberry, S.C. - In their 2022 home opener, the Newberry Men's Lacrosse team dominated the Bobcats of Lees-McRae, 22-7, in their first game back at Setzler Field since last season. Newberry moves to 2-0 on the season and Lee-McRae falls to 0-3.

Sophomore Mac Ryan (Lake Villa, Fla.) had himself a day, scoring a career-high seven goals on seven shots and one ground ball. 

Sophomore Baker Westmoreland (Charlotte, N.C.) was also a key contributor in the win, tallying five goals and netting an assist. 

On the defensive side, Sophomore Connor Bates (Boiling Springs, S.C.) scooped seven ground balls which is just one short of his season-high. 

Newberry stifled LMC in the first half, opening the game on a 15-0 run. The Bobcats scored their first goal one minute into the second half which was answered by a goal from Newberry's junior attacker Scott Reed (Ontario, Canada). Reed also led the Wolves in helpers with three assists in the win and netting four goals in the win. 

Caleb Forga (1), Miles Jones (1), George Pitt (1), Sawyer Morais (1), Curtis Bukta, and Zachary Sunderland all netted goals in Saturday's win.
