Colorado State Uses Twelve Unanswered Goals to Handle Utah

After a relatively slow start, the Colorado State lacrosse team reeled off
twelve straight goals, holding the visiting Utah Utes scoreless for almost
thirty minutes in a 19-3 victory. Attackmen Nick Stanitz-Harper (5 goals),
Mike Napolilli (2g, 5a), and Ryan Davis (3g, 1a) were simply too much for
the Utah defense as they combined for sixteen points. Defenseman Mark
Plonkey (1g, 1a) was superb both on face-offs and on the defensive end of
things for the Rams who moved their record to 8-4 overall and 1-1 in the RMILL.

Midfielders Kale Nelson (1g, 3a), Jim Hasson (2g) and Tim Farquhar (2g) were
all healthy contributors in a complete team effort. For the game, the Rams
out shot the Utes 47-15. Utah goalie Greg Cullis made eight saves while
Colorado State’s Alex Smith (8 saves, 3 goals against), Kevin Krcek (2 svs,
0 ga) and Paul Aubrecht (2 svs, 0 ga) combined for twelve.
