SALEM, Va.  – The ODAC men’s lacrosse tournament continued Tuesday with the quarterfinals, as Roanoke College welcomed Bridgewater for a matchup at Kerr Stadium.

Coach Bill Pilat’s Maroons, the 4-seed, taking on the 5th-seeded Eagles. In the second half, Bridgewater on the attack, Connor McLean sends one past Cole Hiller to put the Eagles up 7-5.

A little bit later, Bridgewater’s Kyle Graham showing off the fancy footwork and bouncing one home while up a man. Eagles now up by 3.

Maroons trying to keep pace. Luca Docking does just that, burying one of his two scores on the night to make it 8-6.
