UConn Defeats Coast Guard in Fall Matchup

~~Game Recap~~

The UConn Men's Lacrosse team hosted the United States Coast Guard Academy today at Sherman Field in what was the Huskies first competition of the 2011-2012 school year. UConn started strong and held a 4-1 lead after the first quarter, and ultimately took a 9-2 lead at the half. Scoring was spread out among the Huskies offense, with 2010 PCLL Rookie of the Year Kevin Canavan leading the team with two goals. For the second half head coach Paul Scordato was able to rest the UConn starters and empty the bench for the remainder of the game, which concluded with a score of 9-4 in favor of the Huskies. After the game the UConn players and parents held a post-game luncheon and treated the Coast Guard players as a thank you for their service to our nation. The Huskies next face Bridgewater State 10/8 at 4pm on Depot Field.
