BYU men's lacrosse: Cougars use big third quarter to down Oregon State and advance

BYU came storming back from a halftime deficit to stay ahead for good. The Cougars take on Georgia Institute of Technology in the second round.

A sleeping BYU offense woke up for one quarter, and that's all the Cougars needed.

In the Men's Collegiate Lacrosse National Championships, No. 5 seed BYU moved past No. 12 seed Oregon State with a 7-5 win Monday night in Irvine, California.

Trailing 3-2 at the beginning of the second half, the Cougars erupted for four unanswered goals in the third quarter en route to the win.

Two of the third quarter goals came from the stick of Chris Severson.
