Men's Lax: SU Seniors Led Blowout Win Against Colgate on Senior Day (DO; Dougherty)

Before Syracuse buried Colgate 19-6 on Saturday, the team honored its nine seniors with a pregame Senior Day ceremony.

The Orange formed two lines in front of the tunnel by its bench, and each senior walked through with family escorting them to handshakes from head coach John Desko, athletic director Daryl Gross and lastly, director of operations Roy Simmons III.

By the time seniors and parents posed for a group shot between the 30- and 40-yard line, Dominic Lamolinara, Derek Maltz, Matt Harris, Drew Jenkins, Billy Ward, Pat Powderly, Kyle Henry, Scott Loy and Chris Daddio had walked through the line as a prelude to an easy victory at the Carrier Dome.

Women's Lax: SU Wins Game of Momentum Late, Wins 14-12 on Senior Day in the Dome (DO; Blum)

Liz Harbeson sat perched atop her teammates’ shoulders, grinning from ear to ear as she was carted off the field.

Moments earlier, it was her interception of Loyola (Md.) goalie Molly Wolf, and subsequent score – the first of the senior’s career – that gave Syracuse the separation it needed in overtime of a game where no lead appeared safe.

“I think I had the biggest smile on my face,” an out-of-breath Harbeson said. “I didn’t know what to do.”

In a game marred by turnovers and blown leads, it was No. 2 Syracuse (18-2, 6-1 Atlantic Coast) that captured the momentum last. SU scored three goals in the final five minutes to tie the game, and two in overtime to win it, 14-12, over the No. 11 Greyhounds (15-5, 8-0 Patriot) in front of 781 at the Carrier Dome on Senior Day. ...
