NEWARK, N.J. --- Under the bright lights of their second-year facility, the NJIT men's lacrosse team pushed its nationally ranked conference foe as far as they could, holding a fourth quarter lead over the No. 17/17 Stony Brook Seawolves before ultimately falling, 12-8, Saturday evening at Lubetkin Field at Mal Simon Stadium.

Sophomore Owen Corry and senior Collin Fogerty led the way for the Highlanders (1-7, 1-5 AE), who were hosting their highest-ranked opponent at the new Lubetkin Field and highest ranked foe since March 17, 2017 when No. 5 Rutgers played NJIT at Ranger Stadium in Madison. Corry and Fogerty each posted four points on the night - Corry with a game-high tying four goals and Fogerty with a score and a team-best three assists. Freshman Logan Hone (2 G) and sophomore Gavyn Willson (1 G, 1 A) rounded out the Highlander scoring and junior Eric Sherman added an assist.

Freshman Isaac Vanzomeren led NJIT with six ground balls and 12 faceoff wins while senior Lynch Raby caused three turnovers for the third consecutive game. Sophomore Liam Brown was three saves shy of his career high, stopping 18 chances overall and adding three ground balls.

1ST QUARTER
Four minutes into the game, Stony Brook (7-3, 5-1 AE) and NJIT had already traded goals, with Corry getting the Highlanders on the board with an unassisted score (11:13). The Seawolves would strike twice to go ahead 3-1 but NJIT countered with a 3-0 spurt on goals from Cprry (5:54 from Sherman) and Hone (3:17, 1:11 man-up from Fogerty) to take a 4-3 lead. Stony Brook snuck in a goal with 15 seconds left to end the quarter tied 4-4 - the same score as their first meeting this season (Mar. 14) after one period.

2ND QUARTER
NJIT was shut out in the final three quarters of their first meeting with Stony Brook and could have let the Seawolves' score to take a 5-4 lead (10:25) derail their recent progress. Instead, the Highlanders held Stony Brook scoreless the rest of the half and went on another 3-0 run (8:50 Corry from Fogerty, 7:10 Willson from Fogerty, 3:32 Corry from Willson) to take a 7-5 lead into intermission.

3RD QUARTER
The third quarter was the lowest scoring quarter of the contest (2-1 Stony Brook). The Highlanders' lone goal by Fogerty (10:55) came in between Stony Brook's two scores and was an under one minute response to the Seawolves' first goal of the period.

The turning point of the game seemed to be the litany of second half penalties called. After combining for only one infraction in the first 30 minutes (first quarter offside on Stony Brook), both teams were charged with 12 infractions in the second half - six on each team.

4TH QUARTER
Seven of the team's 12 second half penalties were charged in the fourth and NJIT's share of the missteps (four penalties) proved to be more costly. Stony Brook outscored NJIT 5-0 in the final 15 minutes, doing so in part by going a perfect 4-for-4 on extra man opportunities in the period.

OTHER NOTES

NJIT was able to win the ground ball (31-28) and faceoff (12-11) battles against Stony Brook Saturday. The last time the Highlanders bested an opponent in both categories was March 7, 2020 at home against Manhattan (28-22 ground balls, 11-7 faceoffs).

NEXT UP
NJIT will start its final two-game road trip with a matchup at Hartford on Saturday, April 17 at 1 p.m.
