WILKES-BARRE -- The King's College men's lacrosse team dropped a 10-1
decision to the visiting Messiah College, the sixth-ranked team in NCAA
Division III.
With the win, Messiah improved to 8-0 and 5-0 in the Middle Atlantic
Conference. King's fell to 4-5 overall and 1-4 in conference
games.
King's lone goal came at 7:12 of the second period when Gary Morgan scored
off an assist from Chris Ives. The Monarch defense performed admirably in
limiting the Falcons to a season low 10 goals for the second time this
season.
Jono Linebaugh scored three goals while Denny Erb and Pat Emery tallied
two each Alex Finch dished out three assists.
King's will next travel to Williamsport on Tuesday with a 4:00 p.m. match
