Mids beat Blue Hens for first win of season

Midfielders Greyson Torain and Drew Smiley scored three goals apiece, while freshman goalkeeper Ryan Kern made 14 stops between the pipes to lead the 17th-ranked Navy's men's lacrosse team to an 11-5 win over Delaware Saturday afternoon at Delaware Stadium in Newark.

"It really feels good to get a check in that win column after starting off 0-2 against two very good teams," said sixth-year Navy head coach Rick Sowell. "We had a little sense of urgency going into this game which can be one of the hardest situations to then capitalize on. I thought we responded well in practice throughout the week and I was pleased to see us show up today and play the way we practiced.
