BEVERLY, Mass. – The Endicott men's lacrosse team lost to No. 17 nationally ranked Babson, 10-9, in overtime on Saturday evening at Hempstead Stadium.
Lee Sipes (Windham, N.H.) potted the game-winner for the Beavers with 59-seconds to play in overtime when he roofed a shot into the top-right corner of the net after circling the crease from behind the cage.
Meanwhile, the Gulls forced the extra session via a Max Kesicki (Katonah, N.Y.) man-up tally at the 2:44 mark of the fourth.
