UMBC Club Men’s Lacrosse Team Makes National Championships after Excelling at Regionals

Baltimore, MD., May 6, 2019 

This past April, UMBC Men’s Club Lacrosse competed against the other top 4 teams in the DII Chesapeake Conference at their annual 2019 NCLL Regional Championship, which took place at Calverton School, MD, for an opportunity to compete for the DII NCLL National Championship in the first week of May.

Our Men’s Club Lacrosse team, led by Senior Brian Spiegel (President) had a very strong showing at the Regional Championship, despite bringing a total of 14 players – less than most of our competition this whole year.

UMBC’s first game was played against the Georgetown Hoyas, in which the Hoyas were able to hang in the game for the first 3 quarters until Sophomore Nathan Chen (Midfield) helped UMBC breakthrough to a 12-8 win with some hustle and sharpshooting.

UMBC met the George Mason Patriots in the finals of the Regional Championship, where they took an early lead in the first half due to some solid defending by Senior Blake Hipsley (Net-Minder) and an outstanding effort by Junior Jake Brothers (Midfield), who provided the team with a few key goals and assists while winning over 90% of his face-offs. Although George Mason’s offense started to pour in a few goals to catch up, Senior Devin Shields (Vice-President / Attack) led the counter-attack late in the second half, netting 3 total goals on the day, to clinch UMBC’s victory in the 2019 NCLL Regional Championship, with a 12-9 win.

UMBC competed at the 2019 DII NCLL National Championship this past weekend against the #1 seeded team, the Providence Friars, and played an extremely hard-fought game, leveling the score to 11-11 going into the last quarter, almost advancing to the Final Four. Brothers shined with another 95%+ face-off win rate and 3 goals on the day, while net-minders Blake Hipsley and Freshman Jacob Troy dealt with 35 shots in total, racking up a 50%+ save percentage. UMBC’s other scorers included Devin Shields, Senior Brad Armstrong, and Senior Nick Emelio. UMBC ended that match 11-18 falling to Providence, who ended up going on to win the National Championship.
