Men's Lacrosse Wins Patriot League Championship, Clinches Auto-Bid for NCAA Tournament

BOSTON – For the third time in program history the Army West Point Men's Lacrosse team won the Patriot League Tournament to clinch the automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.

The two-seed Black Knights earned a hard fought 10-8 victory over five-seed Loyola that never saw Army trail.

Jacob Morin got the scoring going with 7:53 and one minute later Reese Burek doubled the lead. Just 13 short seconds later Gunnar Fellows made the Army lead 3-0.

Loyola used a 3-0 run over the end of the first quarter and the start of the second to tie things up at 3-3.
