KENOSHA, Wis. — On Saturday, the Carthage College men's lacrosse team suffered a 13-8 conference loss to Elmhurst.

Final score: Elmhurst 13 - Carthage 8
Location: Kenosha, Wisconsin - Art Keller Field

Carthage started the scoring, with George Burchfield finding the net at the 13:57 mark. However, Elmhurst swiftly responded with three consecutive goals, altering the score to 3-1 in their favor.
Goals from Jake Westland and Alec Gern leveled the playing field at three goals each before the Bluejays managed to add two more, leading 5-3 as the first quarter concluded.
Andrew Frey's goal with nine minutes remaining in the second quarter narrowed the deficit to one.
Carthage concluded the quarter strongly, netting two of the following three goals and equalizing the game at six goals, each heading to halftime.
Elmhurst then embarked on a 5-1 run, extending their lead to 11-7 heading into the fourth quarter.
Although Ben Krok managed to find the back of the net for Carthage in the final quarter, Elmhurst secured the victory with a final score of 13-8.

Ian Edwards and George Burchfield each had two goals in the contest.
Sam Wallace had six ground balls for Carthage on the day, while Josiah Gartner made 12 saves.

"Not the result we wanted. Elmhurst has been playing great lacrosse all season, and they have the best offensive player in the conference. He carried them over the finish line there in the second half. He's a very good player. We are still not executing consistently in certain areas; the third was about possessions. Just couldn't get the ball on the offensive side, and then we panicked or pressed too much in the third. Just have to get back to work on Monday and keep grinding. The guys played hard and put in a good effort, but we need a cleaner game to beat a high-quality opponent."
