FREDERICK, Md.--Seniors Alex Engler and Doug Brisbane notched first-half scores for the Hood College men's lacrosse team (3-9, 0-3 Commonwealth) but the Blazers came up on the short end of a 14-2 Commonwealth Conference decision to Elizabethtown College (7-2, 2-1 Commonwealth) Wednesday afternoon at Thomas Athletic Field.

Brisbane scored his sixth goal of the season midway through the first quarter to make it a 2-1 game while Engler started the scoring in the second quarter with his fourth tally of the spring.

Randolph Clark won 10 face-offs and amassed 11 ground balls while Nicholas Galliani, Patrick O'Leary and Domenic Cetrone each forced two Blue Jay miscues.

The goalkeeping tandem of John Martin and Joseph McCulloh split time between the pipes and recorded 10 saves apiece.

The Blue Jays led 10-2 at halftime and added four scores in the fourth. Craig Hunsberger and Dillon O'Dell scored three times each for Etown.

The Blazers next travel to Lebanon Valley College Saturday for a 1 p.m. Commonwealth tilt.
