After falling to the University of Utah in its home-opener on Saturday, the Marquette men’s lacrosse team was back at home to face No. 16 University of Michigan Tuesday afternoon looking to snap its two-game losing streak.
However, Wolverines had other plans as they defeated the Golden Eagles 12-10.
“We very easily could have been intimidated against (the University of Michigan) based off their record and their ranking, but we went right at them,” Maquette head coach Andrew Stimmel said. “We went at them for 60 minutes.”
Early in the first quarter, sophomore attacker Russel Melendez struck first for Marquette as he got a ball past Michigan’s goalkeeper sophomore Shane Carr.
