MONTEVALLO, Ala. – On Saturday, April 15, the Montevallo men's lacrosse team would not be stopped in a 26-6 win over Shorter en route to the third-highest scoring game in program-history. 
 
The Falcons' historic afternoon got off to a fast start with four shots from Montevallo inside the first 1:03 of the first quarter. Junior defender Luke Hennebaul put the first goal on the board off a pass from Scott Friant before Jackson Klewchuk scored of the following face off to put the Falcons on top 2-0 early. Montevallo was back on the attack just seconds later before Connor Frederick and Trevayne Hunter went back-to-back to go up 4-0 with 6:18 left in the first. Freshman Alex Egorshin's third save of the day kickstarted the Faclons' counterattack where Hunter would find Chaiton Williams for the fifth goal of the game to give Montevallo a 5-0 lead heading in to the second. 
 
Klewchuk found the back of the net just :35 seconds into the second off another face off win from junior Gerry York. Hunter capitalized on a Shorter turnover to give Montevallo a 7-0 lead and jump start a 4-0 Montevallo run. On three-straight face off wins from York and Tenger, senior Connor Frederick, Hunter, and Zach Reed each scored a goal in just 1:56 of game time to put the Falcons up 10-0 with 11:10 left in the second. Hunter notched his fourth goal of the first half before Shorter's offense ended the Falcons' run with a pair of back-to-back goals to make the score 11-2. Will Sommer, Reed, and Williams rattled off three-consecutive unassisted goals to extend the lead to 14-2. Two Shorter goals, sandwiched by Williams' third goal of the day, trimmed the advantage to 15-4 with 1:14 left in the first half. The Falcons found a pair of goals inside the final minute with strikes from Friant and Hunter to take a 17-4 lead into the locker room. 
 
Montevallo's offense showed no mercy out of the break with Hunter scoring his sixth goal of the day just :14 seconds into the half. The game slowed for the next seven minutes until Jacob Obee took advantage of a man-up opportunity to put Montevallo up 20-4. Morgan Trites found mark off the following face off before a pair of Shorter goals to close the quarter left Montevallo with a 21-6 lead heading into the final stanza. 
 
The Falcons took 3:10 to score the first goal of the fourth with a Matthew Boas shot off a Klewchuk pass. Connor Ferguson lifted Montevallo to a 23-6 lead with a man-up goal before finding the mark again at the 5:00 mark. Trites scored his second goal of the afternoon before Boas scored again inside the final minute to give Montevallo a 26-6 conference victory.
