PHILADELPHIA – The Drexel men's lacrosse team has punched its ticket to the CAA Tournament after defeating the Hofstra Pride at Vidas Field on Saturday, 17-8. The Dragons improve to 8-4 overall and 4-1 in conference play.

Prior to the game, the Dragons celebrated 10 seniors for their dedication to the program. Among those celebrated were Connor McVicker, Jack Nolan, Jack Wallace, Conor Hooley, Jack Joyner, Finn Halladay, Liam Kammar, Sam Di Trolio, Luke Tomak and Luke Carden.
Alec Tulio and Witt Crawford each scored four goals to help lead Drexel to the double-digit victory. Tulio added one assist, while Crawford had two helpers to total six points.

Brendan Donnely started in the cage and pieced together a 19-save performance, setting a career-high.

Trent Layton won a total of 14 faceoff wins on 22 chances. Di Trolio finished with a pair of faceoff victories as well.

Drexel jumped out to a 5-1 advantage in the first quarter. The Dragons used a Hooley tally with 14 minutes left to play and a Crawford goal with 12 minutes to jump out to a 2-0 lead. After conceding a goal with 10:25 remaining, Drexel scored three straight goals to end the quarter in the lead, 5-1.

Drexel's high-powered offense continued into the second quarter. Crawford scored his second to put Drexel on the board just 40 seconds into the quarter. After Hofstra answered once, Drexel rattled off two goals, the first by Teddy Luthy and the second by Tulio. Hofstra scored two goals to pull within four of the Dragons, 8-4. Hooley scored one more goal with a 1:14 left to send Drexel to the locker room ahead by five.

The third quarter was all Drexel. The Dragons used a 6-0 frame to jump out to a 15-4 lead. Crawford began the scoring in the second half. Quickly after, Joyner added one more. The Dragons then received tallies from Tulio and Crawford to send the team into the final frame with a 11-goal lead.

Hofstra outscored the Dragons, 4-2 in the final frame. Liam Luzza and Luke Mingioni added onto Drexel's lead to push the team to 17.

Drexel is set to play its final conference game of the regular season on Saturday, April 18 on the road at Stony Brook. The Dragons are currently the second-seeded team in the CAA. With a win against the Seawolves on Saturday would cement the Dragons as the No. 2 team in the postseason tournament. The Dragons do still have a chance at winning the CAA's regular season title but would need Towson to drop both of its last two games against Fairfield and Hofstra.
