Revak Wins CACC Men’s Lacrosse Player Of the Week Award, Jones Appears on Honor Roll
New Haven, Conn. - (4/8/2019) – Chestnut Hill College scored six straight fourth-quarter goals to come from behind for a 14-12 victory in Saturday’s contest at Molly College. Sophomore midfielder Ben Revak (Aston, Pa.) totaled five points (2 goals, 3 assists), including the last two goals of the game to earn the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) Player of the Week award. Freshman goalkeeper Austin Jones (Courtice, Ontario) (5-3) joined him on the Weekly Report, receiving an Honor Roll mention with 10 saves and a ground ball.
Chestnut Hill College (5-4) scored the first two goals of the contest, taking a 2-0 lead with goals from Revak (1-0, 14:05) and senior attack Casey Brown (Havre de Grace, Md.) (2-0, 9:12). Molloy College (4-7) cut the Scarlet and Gold lead in half by the end of the frame, 2-1, but only traded tallies with the Griffins in the second quarter to remain a goal short at halftime, 6-5. The Lions made up for it in the third quarter, where they scored six unanswered goals after opening Griffin goals from Brown (7-5, 13:53) and junior attack Scott Wilden (Wexford, Pa.) (8-5, 12:51). Fortunately, Chestnut Hill College’s fourth-quarter effort was just as impressive as Molloy College’s third quarter; following a leadoff Lion goal (12-8, 14:09), six straight Scarlet and Gold tallies reversed fortunes and scored the Griffins a 14-12 triumph in their final non-conference contest of 2019.
