W&L Men's Lacrosse Tripped Up By No. 10 Gettysburg, 10-6

GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Junior attackman Aidan Wykoff scored three goals to lift 10th-ranked Gettysburg to a 10-6 victory over Washington and Lee in men's lacrosse on Tuesday afternoon at Musselman Stadium.
 
W&L (3-4) scored the game's first goal when sophomore attackman Alex Brown (Norwalk, Conn. / Taft School) snatched a rebound out of the air and sent a shot past Gettysburg senior goalkeeper Scott MacMillan just 2:27 into the contest.
 
Gettysburg (5-1) knotted the score at the 7:07 mark when Wykoff scored and then took the lead at 4:51 on a goal by junior midfielder Michael Zima.  W&L tied it up at 2-2 with a goal by senior attackman Taylor Witherell (Wilmington, Del. / Salesianum), but the Bullets scored the game's next three goals, including another by Wykoff, to assume a 5-2 lead with 11:09 left in the second quarter.
 
The Generals remained within striking distance for the remainder of the game, but could get no closer than a three-goal deficit the rest of the way.
 
The Bullets held a 49-32 advantage in shots and W&L posted a 32-25 edge in ground balls.  Gettysburg held a slight 11-9 advantage in faceoffs.
 
Sophomore attackman Michael Ott (Savannah, Ga. / St. John's Prep) led the Blue & White with one goal and two assists, while Witherell finished with one goal and one helper.  Senior Nick Spagnoletti (Madison, N.J. / Madison) registered 19 saves while playing all 60 minutes in goal.
 
Junior attackman George Raymond totaled two goals and junior midfielder Kyle Howard posted one goal and two assists for Gettysburg.  MacMillan finished with 11 saves.
 
Washington and Lee will be back in action on Saturday when it travels to Randolph-Macon for a 1:00 pm contest.
