The Rutgers men’s lacrosse team traveled to Amherst and came away with their first road victory of the season, a convincing 11-5 result versus Umass, affectionately known as the Garber Gorillas, after former Hall of Fame coach Richard Garber, who roamed the sidelines for 35 years from 1955-1990. The Minutemen Gorillas would actually lead after one quarter of play, 3-2.

David Sprock would open the scoring off an assist from Dante Kulas exactly a minute into the match before Umass would tie up the score, 1-1. Shane Knobloch would net an unassisted goal at the 8:55 mark before Umass added two consecutive goals of their own to lead 3-2 heading into the 2nd quarter.
