WINCHESTER, Va. - Shenandoah University men's lacrosse plays in its second straight ODAC quarterfinals Tuesday afternoon in taking on third-seeded Washington and Lee University at Wilson Field on the W&L campus.

SU (9-9) comes into the game fresh off a 16-10 win at the sixth-seeded Bridgewater College on Sunday morning in the ODAC Tournament first round contest.

The Hornets had a commanding 11-4 lead at halftime with five different players scoring in the second half to reach the final score. 

HISTORY

Shenandoah and W&L last played each other less than a week ago during conference play.

The Generals took that game 25-6. SU goalie Mark Isabelle made 29 saves in the game, putting him third all-time for most saves in a game by a Shenandoah goalie.

The two squads have never met in playoff competition but the Hornets have yet to overcome Washington & Lee, losing all 13 previous contests in a series that dates back the first year of the Shenandoah program in 1993.

BY THE NUMBERS

Logan Clingerman, Max Myers, and Jake Green lead the way in scoring for the Hornets with Clingerman scoring 32 and the latter two scoring 27 each. 

Zachary Heiderman leads in assists with 20, while Clingerman and Stephen Graham rounding out the top three assist leaders with 18 and 17, respectively. 

Austin Galler ranks fourth in the ODAC on the season for ground balls, scooping up 102, and face-off percentage, winning 54.3% (199-366) from the spot. 

Shenandoah goalkeeper, Mark Isabelle, sits at second in ODAC in saves with 213, and ranks fifth in save percentage at 53%.

The winner of Tuesday's game visits second-seed Hampden-Sydney on May 4th in the ODAC semifinals.
