Lewisburg, PA- The Brown men's water polo team picked a 13-8 victory over the University of Toronto this afternoon in its first of two games today at the Bucknell Invitational. Freshmen James McNamara and Grant Villeneuve led the attack with three goals apiece, and rookie Walker Shockley and sophomore Max Lubin split time in net again today and combined for five saves.
Bruno jumped out to a 5-2 lead and followed it up with a 3-1 second quarter to take an 8-3 halftime lead. Brown and Toronto both netted four goals in the third quarter and one in the fourth, but the Bears came out with the victory thanks to a strong first half of defense and an explosive first quarter on offense.
After sitting out the first two games of the season due to an injury, sophomore Dean Serure came back strong to add two goals in today's contest. Sophomore Cyrus Mojdehi also had a great performance today, adding two goals and swiping five steals.
Gordon Hood, Svetozar Stefanovic and Steven Chizen also added one goal apiece, while Shockley picked up two saves in net and Lubin earned three.
