Box Score BANGOR, ME- Thomas saw its 2013 season come to an end, falling to Husson 11-2 in the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) Quarterfinal matchup Saturday afternoon.
Thomas was able to play to a 0-0 deadlock throughout the first quarter, not letting up a goal until Dillon Shaw put the Eagles on the board first on an Alex Ryan pass with seconds remaining in the opening stanza.
Husson added six goals in the second quarter; three coming from Heaps to give the hosts a 7-0 going into half time.
Thomas broke the shutout, scoeing the first goal of the second half when Parker Chute got a tally of a feed from Sheldon Jones. Sean Machin would also score for the Terriers in the third quarter which would be the last Thomas goal of the game. The Eagles matched the two goals in the quarter with their own coming from Corbo and Vinny Visconti to give them a comfortable 9-2 lead.
Corbo and Heaps both added goals in the final quarter to tame the Terriers 11-2.
Husson led the game in shots, face offs won, and ground balls, while causing less turnovers.
Senior netminder Jesse Morkeski recorded 16 saves in what would be his last collegiate contest.
The loss signals the end to the careers of Morkeski, Machin, and Issac Brown, who were instrumental in the growth of the Thomas men's lacrosse program and will surely be missed.
