In their DaSilva sendoff, the seniors of the St. John’s Men’s Lacrosse team almost had their signature moment.
On Saturday, the team’s Senior Day, the Red Storm narrowly missed their first conference victory since the final game of the 2016 season. No. 15/13 Denver ultimately held off the Johnnies, 15-12.
The 10 soon-to-be departed have managed just the one Big East victory in their four years with the lacrosse program. Senior midfielder Declan Swartwood was among those determined to add an upset to the ledger, leading the way with three goals and two assists in the losing effort.
