[FU73]

Fairfield University Men's Lacrosse (2-5)(0-4) is on the backend of its first road swing of the season, heading down to Towson to continue CAA action against the Tigers (3-6)(0-3). Opening faceoff is slated for Noon with Spiro Morekas and Glenn Smith calling the action live on the Towson Sports Network.

Towson-Fairfield History
It's a brief history between the Tigers and the Stags. The programs have met just six times prior to this season. Towson leads the all-time series 5-1, with the only loss coming during the 2017 season, a 9-8 loss in Connecticut. Towson won the last meeting 14-7 on April 6, 2019. The teams did not meet last season following the COVID 19 shutdown. Towson is riding a two-game winning streak against the Stags, one shy of the longest in series history.

Good chance for a W against a weak Towson team.

If the Stags do not break through to a victory against Towson
we could go winless in the CAA this year.

Stags 7-3 at the half. Dylan Beckwith with 3 goals and 1 assist.

Stags 11-12

Stags had led 10-8 at the end of the Third Period but were outscored 4-1 in the final period and 9-4 in the second half.

Stags are now (2-6) overall and (0-5) in the CAA.

Stags are in last place in the CAA and (1-14) in the CAA since 2018. The last NCAA Tournament appearance was in 2005. Clearly a problem for the University and Stag fans.

Another disappointing loss. The performance in the CAA over the last few years is troubling. The stags are not competitive after a significant investment in facilities and coaches.
