Binghamton Men’s Lacrosse Falls to Albany in the America East Championship

ALBANY, N.Y. - The Binghamton men’s lacrosse team (11-5) fell to No. 5 Albany (14-2), 20-8, in the America East championship game at Casey Stadium on May 6. It was the second championship appearance for Binghamton ever and first since 2004.

Binghamton’s 11 wins set a new program record.

“I’m really proud of all of our players, specifically our seniors,” said America East Coach of the Year Kevin McKeown. “They really helped our program take a big step forward and in the right direction this season. Our leaders have been great on and off the field all season. We told our guys today that we are really proud of them, but we are of course not satisfied. We want to be finishing the season wearing those championship hats.”

Tom Moore led the Bearcats with three goals to increase his season total to 48 while Stephen Petrelli added two goals and one assist. Zach Barrett picked up seven ground balls.

Three members of the Binghamton team were named to the All-Tournament team, freshman Zach Barrett, junior Stephen Petrelli and senior Garrett Waldron.
