Junior John Edmonds and sophomore Kerry Lyne both had four goals to lead the Union College men's lacrosse team to a 12-8 victory over Babson on Saturday afternoon. With the win, Union remains undefeated to start the season, while Babson falls to 1-2 on the year. Jordan Cooper dished out four assists, junior Alex Newhouse won 11-of-18 face-offs and picked up eight ground balls, and four players caused turnovers apiece in the win. Lyne scored twice in the first quarter to help Union build a 4-1 lead, and then added his third tally of the afternoon to extend the margin to 6-2 with 4:41 to go in the second quarter. The Beavers Mason O'Hanlon notched his fifth goal of the season less than a minute later to cut the Babson deficit to three, but Edmonds scored at the 2:22 mark to make it 7-3 at halftime. Samuel Mishkind scored twice in the third quarter to keep the Beavers within four, and the Green and White took advantage of three straight Union penalties with man-up goals by Austin Fabel and Mishkind to get as close as 10-7 less than two minutes into the fourth. The momentum was short-lived though, as Edmonds pushed the Union edge back to four with 12:33 left. Dutchmen first-year Aidan Flood tacked on an insurance goal with 8:45 remaining to match the visitors' biggest lead of the game. Babson scored three times on 10 extra-man opportunities, while Union finished 1-for-4 with the man advantage. The Dutchmen also finished with an edge in shots (41-36) and groundballs (39-32). Union returns to the field on Wednesday, March 7, hosting Williams College at 7 p.m. (ET) at Frank Bailey Field.
