Box Score Ann Arbor, Michigan - The men's lacrosse team was on the road this afternoon when they traveled to Ann Arbor, for a matchup against the fourth ranked Concordia Cardinals. The Saints first half forecasted trouble as the Saints fell by a score of 11-7. The Saints now have a record of 5-4 overall and 2-1 in conference play.
 
The Saints struggled in the first half only recording one goal to the Cardinals' six. Concordia scored three goals in the first and three in the second before AQ netted their only goal of the half. The goal came from Dean Cooper at 3:22 on a man-up opportunity. Cooper's goal was assisted by Jon Jardis.
 
The Saints would have their best quarter in third, scoring five goals to the Cardinals three. AQ started hot with Haggart netting the first goal at 14:08. Roughly 40 seconds later, the Saints struck again with a goal from Jack Rioux. After assisting Rioux on his goal, Zachary Sweet scored one of his own at 10:19. This assist came from Haggart.
