After a setback against Villanova last Saturday, Marquette men’s lacrosse (4-8, 3-7 BIG EAST) turned things around Friday afternoon and defeated the St. John’s Red Storm (1-10, 0-10 BIG EAST) 15-14 at DaSilva Field in the regular season finale.
The Golden Eagles now own an 8-1 all-time record against The Johnnies, including a clean 2-0 sweep this season.
MU got out to an early two-goal lead with goals from graduate student midfielder Peter Henkaus and redshirt junior attacker Griffin Fleming.
Twenty seconds after Fleming’s goal at the 12:47 mark of the first quarter, St. John’s offense took over as the Red Storm would score six goals in a span of less than three minutes.
