Waterbury, Conn. - Junior Corey Auten (Stratford, Conn.) scored four goals for the Post University men's lacrosse team, but it dropped a 22-6 game to Assumption on Wednesday afternoon at LaMoy Field.

After conceding the first five goals of the game- with two coming from Assumption's Travis Reid - the Eagles got on the board with 13 seconds left in the first period on a goal from team leading scorer, sophomore Carlos Chacua (Norwalk, Conn.). It was his 11th goal of the season to make it a 5-1 game after the first period.

Assumption scored at the 10:04 mark to take a 6-1 lead at the 10:04 mark in the second period, but Auten answered with his first goal of the game, and his fourth on the season with 7:57 remaining. Assumption scored the next four goals before Auten put in his second of the game at 1:14. Assumption's Trevor Wilcox would tack on one more goal right before halftime at the 21 second mark to give the Greyhounds the 11-3 lead.

The Greyhounds scored eight consecutive goals in the third to take a 19-3 lead heading in to the final period. Auten would tack on his final two goals, along with a goal from junior Jake Bova (Trumbull, Conn.) in the fourth.  Sophomore Justin Nogueira (Southington, Conn.) had the lone assist of the game for the Eagles.
