Iona MLAX Drops MAAC Contest at Marist

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY – The Iona University men's lacrosse team dropped a 17-6 decision to Marist in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play at Tenney Stadium. A decisive third quarter by the Red Foxes proved to be the difference, while rookie Carson Turissini recorded his first collegiate hat trick to pace the Gaels.
 

THE RUNDOWN

Marist opened the afternoon with a 3-0 lead after one quarter and pushed its advantage to four early in the second. Turissini put Iona on the board at the 11:47 mark off an assist from sophomore Cullen Lawry. The Red Foxes responded with two more goals to build a 6-1 cushion before back-to-back unassisted tallies from sophomore Kyle Hardie trimmed the deficit to 6-3 at the half.
 
The home side seized control in the third quarter, scoring the first seven goals of the period. Freshman Luke Neary halted the run with a man-up tally in the closing seconds of the frame.
 
Turissini accounted for the final scoring in the fourth quarter, adding a pair of unassisted goals at 7:52 and 3:56 to complete his three-goal performance.
