ARLINGTON -- Marymount men's lacrosse led for most of the first half on Wednesday evening before Gwynedd Mercy put together a 12-3 run to close out the game and finish with a 17-9 victory. 

HOW IT HAPPENED

• After an early goal from Gwynedd, the Saints scored the next two, including Alex Tran's first career goal to jump ahead 2-1 with 7:31 left in the first quarter. 
• Bryan Maguire (3G) closed out the first quarter scoring with a tally from Ciaran Connolly to head into the second quarter with a 4-2 lead.

• Gwynedd opened the third quarter with another goal but Marymount responded with two in a row to cut the deficit to 10-8. 
• Marymount seemed poised to cut the deficit once again but Gwynedd's defense held strong and the Griffins scored seven of the game's final eight goals to win by a 17-9 final score.

• Cam Glass finished the day 19-of-22 in the face-off spot.
