Box Score

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - The Brown men's lacrosse team (6-7, 1-5 Ivy) closed the regular season with a 14-13 loss in a back-and-forth battle against No. 9 Yale (9-4, 4-2 Ivy) on Saturday afternoon at Stevenson-Pincince Field.

"Hats off to Yale as they took advantage of any mistake we made throughout the game," Rothman Head Coaching Chair for Men's Lacrosse Jon Torpey said. "I know our team really wanted to send these seniors out on top but unfortunately we fell short. To respond the way they did today after a tough double overtime loss that eliminated them from the Ivy League Tournament last week is beyond admirable. This team fought all year and everyone associated with our program past and present should be proud of their effort."

Marcus Wertheim led the way with three goals while Brady O'Kane found the back of the net twice to go along with one assist. Ennie Udo, Jackson Wolfram, and Ben Scandone also scored twice.

As a team, Brown won 20 out of 30 face-offs, Henry Brayer won 15 out of 20.

The Bears outscored the Bulldogs 4-3 in the opening quarter behind goals from Jeremy Hopsicker, Wertheim, Wolfram, and Scandone.

Brown opened the second quarter on a 2-0 run behind goals from Jameson Steele and Udo, extending its lead to 6-3. After a goal from Yale to cut Brown's lead to 6-4, the Bears mounted a 2-0 run of its own to extend its lead to 8-4. The Bulldogs closed the first half on a 2-0 run as the Bears took an 8-6 advantage into the second half.

Brown outscored Yale 2-1 to open the third quarter to extend its lead to 10-7 before the Bulldogs mounted a 3-0 run to tie the game at 10. Udo's second goal of the game with 25 seconds remaining in the frame gave Brown an 11-10 lead before Yale leveled the game at 11 with four seconds left, sending the game tied at 11 entering the fourth quarter.

Wertheim and O'Kane scored the two goals for the Bears in the fourth quarter, giving them a 13-12 lead, O'Kane's goal gave the Bears a 13-12 advantage with 4:12 remaining in regulation before the Bulldogs outscored the Bears 2-0 in the final 3:01 to earn the victory.
