MILWAUKEE, Wisc. – The Cleveland State University men's lacrosse team fell to Marquette on Saturday afternoon at Valley Fields, 10-5. With the loss, the Green and White now fall to 1-4 on the season.

QUOTE TO NOTE
 "Hats off to Marquette and the way they played today, especially defensively. I thought we did a nice job at the 'x' and our defense was excellent – we just couldn't get going on the other end and that's a credit to them. It's been a long five weeks on the road and I know the boys will be happy to be back in the whites next week." – Head Coach Andy German

The Golden Eagles tacked on two more goals in the second quarter, while Stephen Masi scored for the Green and White, assisted by Tristan Hanna, at the 2:03 mark of the second quarter.

Neither team would add to their goal total the rest of the second half, as Marquette held a 5-2 halftime advantage.

Cleveland State added a pair of goals in the third period of action, as both Brendan Sigurdson and Chase Baker found the back of the net for the Green and White. Although the Vikes tallied two scores in the third frame, Marquette added three goals to take an 8-4 lead heading into the final quarter of play.

Gabe Reno notched his second goal of the season with 8:05 left to play in regulation, but the Golden Eagles would increase their goal total by two more in the final 15 minutes to earn a 10-5 victory, Marquette's first win of the season.
