This Week in KSU Lacrosse

Last Time Out

Coach Llanes on Dominating the Draw Against Howard
»    "Our draw control team was a huge factor in the outcome of the game. Victoria and Sydney worked hard on positioning and placement and that lead to the offense producing. Defensively, Elaine (Bradley) did a nice job directing the defense in smart, patient plays in less than ideal playing conditions."
 
KSU as a Team                                   
»    The four goals that the Owls held the Bison too was the least amount of goals the team has surrendered in three seasons. KSU's defense was so stout they only allowed nine shots on goal the entire game.
»    With Kennesaw State scoring 21 goals against Howard, it was the most goals the Owls have scored this season and tied for the second most goals they have ever scored in a game.
»    Coming into the season, the Owls team record for assists in a game was eight. So far this season, KSU has surpassed that number three times against Delaware State, Gardner Webb and Howard. Kennesaw State had 10 assists against the Hornets, nine assists against the Runnin' Bulldogs and 11 assists against Howard.
