Grasso Scores 100th Point During Loss At Georgian Court

Box Score

LAKEWOOD, N.J. – Redshirt sophomore attackman Robert Grasso (Islip, N.Y.) became the first Felician University men's lacrosse player to record 100 career points during the Golden Falcons' 20-10 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference loss to host Georgian Court University on Saturday morning at the GCU Track & Field Complex.

Grasso finished the day with seven goals and seven ground balls. He ran his career scoring totals to 78 goals and 22 assists in 26 games. Felician is in its fifth year of varsity intercollegiate competition, and Grasso is 41 points ahead of the next person on the Golden Falcons' career points list, Ausar Wright.

Georgian Court (5-9, 2-2 CACC) took control early, caging the game's first five goals. Felician freshman Luke Dayton (Haddon Township, N.J.) put his team on the scoreboard with two minutes, 53 seconds, remaining in the first period, but the Lions' Daniel Burnham (Islip Terrace, N.Y.) scored at 0:15 of the first to restore the hosts' five-goal edge.

GCU put the game away by outscoring the Golden Falcons, 7-0, during the second quarter for a 13-1 halftime edge. The score was 18-1 at the end of the third before Felician tallied nine times in the fourth to salvage the final margin. Grasso found the cage twice during the final minute to reach the 100-point milestone.

Dayton finished with two goals and one assist and Filipe Correia (Brick, N.J.) had a goal and an assist for Felician (5-7, 1-4). Tajae McLean-Byrd (Bronx, N.Y.) was 17 for 29 on faceoffs with eight ground balls. Nick Grebe (Farmingville, N.Y.) was credited with 13 saves, and fellow Golden Falcon goalkeeper Ash Kolz (Luxembourg City, Luxembourg) matched a career high with four stops on three goals allowed in 20 minutes of relief work.

Sophomore Tallen Smith (Milltown, N.J.) collected four goals and seven assists and senior Devin Bell (Calgary, Alberta) had four goals and one assist for the Lions. GCU goalie Andrew Candino (Cedar Grove, N.J.) gave up one goal and made nine saves in 40 minutes.

Felician is idle until hosting Caldwell University on Wed., Apr. 20 at noon in Rutherford.
