Finally DeMaio scores after a slow start on a bounce shot to make it 9-6. He was something like 0 for his 12

Musci finally calls his first TO with 1:09 left and 61 secs on the shotclock. So they might not have the last shot of the half, but will need to get a good one with about 15 secs left in the half.

Good half up 9-6. Their zone did what it was supposed to do and force an outside shot which Avanzato took with about 20 secs left in the half. Fortunately, the Stags did not have enough time to get a good shot off.

After some sloppy turnovers by both teams, Alex Reid rips the net to give the Tigers a 10-6 lead early in the third.

Avanzato with his 8th EMO goal of the year. Now 11-6 in the third.

11-7 Towson after 3. Bad shot late in the quarter when they could have held for the last shot. Fortunately, the Stags were unable to capitalize. Getting sloppy on the offensive end. A lot of forced passes in the middle. When we get the ball in the crease, we're not converting the layups on the crease. Not since early in the game.

12-8 final. Stewart, Avanzato and Shilling with two goals apiece. Brennan with 15 saves and some key ones in the fourth quarter. Probably should have had at least 15 goals, but we''ll take it. First place and back in the CAA Trny, which is held at Drexel this year.

Good to get the win. I think we have a decent shot at winning the CAA tournament, but it's hard to see us advancing in the NCAAs if we make it. Still too many weaknesses on this team.
