HOW IT HAPPENED

• A Lyndon own-goal made it 2-0 in the 15^th minute before senior Yik Ka Lam (Hong Kong, China) scored his first collegiate goal in the 22^nd minute to give Lesley a 3-0 advantage, proving to be the halftime score.
• Chaib stayed hot, finishing for his fifth goal of the week at the 54:05 marker to move the score to 4-0.
• Junior Marc Kenny Derac (Waltham, Mass.) scored back-to-back goals to make it 6-0 before senior Miles Brajdic (Atlanta, Ga.) capped the scoring in the final minute to account for the 7-0 final.

INSIDE THE NUMBERS

• Lesley owned a 36-6 advantage in shots in addition to a 13-1 cushion in corners.
• Chaib finished the game with four points on a goal and two assists.
• The score for Brajdic was the first of his collegiate career.
• Tyler Fortin (Farmington, Conn.) and Adiel Menjivar (Lynn, Mass.) also had assists in the win.

OF NOTE

Lesley entered the day needing to win their contest in addition to getting losses from UMaine-Presque Isle, VTSU Johnson and SUNY Cobleskill and all three programs fell in their regular-season NAC finales to allow the LU to jump three spots in the standings on the day when it mattered most.
