DELAWARE, Ohio– The Salisbury University men’s lacrosse team fell to Ohio Wesleyan University 12-11 on Sunday for its second straight loss.

Garrett Reynolds helped Salisbury fight back to even the score at 7-7 with two of his five goals on the day. Reynolds scored twice in less than a minute in the third quarter to cut the Battling Bishops’ lead to two.

After a Zach Pompea goal with 10:24 left in the third, Corey Gwin and Griffin Moroney notched back-to-back scores to give Salisbury an 8-7 lead. Ohio Wesleyan responded with two goals in the final three minutes of the quarter and took a 9-8 lead into the fourth.

The two teams battled in the fourth quarter with Salisbury taking the 3-2 advantage to end regulation in a tie. Gwin scored his second goal of the game with six minutes left and neither team would score again in regulation.

Salisbury could not manage a goal on four opportunities in overtime and Ohio Wesleyan won with less than a minute left in overtime on a Steven Hildebrand goal.
