1 JOHNS HOPKINS Blue Jays Lacrosse #2 Johns Hopkins (8-1) at #14 Navy (7-4) Saturday, April 20, 2002 Navy Marine Corps Stadium Noon The Game: Second-ranked Johns Hopkins (8-1) travels to Navy (7-4) for a matchup with the 14th-ranked Midshipmen. Johns Hopkins knocked off Maryland, 9-8 in overtime in its last game, while the Mids defeated Mount St. Mary s, A Look Back: Johns Hopkins posted an 8-4 record last season and advanced to the NCAA Quarterfinals. Navy posted an 8-5 record last season and finished third in the ECAC. A Look Forward: With just three weeks remaining in the regular season, the race for the six at-large bids to the NCAA Tournament is wide open. While Johns Hopkins, Virginia and Syracuse appear to have locked up bids, all three teams could still use one more win to solidify a grip on a bid. Navy, with a 3-2 ECAC record, appears to have missed its chance to win the automatic bid the league owns, but could figure into the at-large mix by beating Johns Hopkins and Army next week. The Coaches: Dave Pietramala is in his second season as the head coach of the Blue Jays. He sports an overall record of 39-22, including a 16-5 record at Johns Hopkins. Pietramala spent three years as the head coach at Cornell ( ) before returning to his alma mater last season. He is the only person in the history of college lacrosse who has earned NCAA Division I National Player of the Year honors (1989) and NCAA Division I National Coach of the Year honors (2000). Richie Meade, a 1976 graduate of the University of North Carolina, sports an overall record of 81-69, including a mark in eight seasons at Navy.

Hopkins has defeated Navy by seven or more goals four times since 1994, while also picking up one-goal wins in 1994, 1998 and About the Mids: Navy enter s this week s game against Johns Hopkins wih a 7-4 overall record after back-to-back wins over Penn State (9-7) and Mount St. Mary s (10-5). Head coach Richie Meade boasts a deep (31 players have played in seven or more games) and talented team that could still figure into the mix for an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament with season-ending wins over Johns Hopkins and Army. A talented offesive unit is paced by senior attackman Eddie McKinnon, who leads the team with 22 goals and 11 assists. McKinnon tallied 23 goals and 11 assists last season and scored the 75th goal of his career in the win over Mount St. Mary s. In addition to McKinnon, the Midshipmen boast three other players with 10 or more goals in Ben Bailey (14g, 5a), Dave Pittard (11g, 15a), and Eddy Holton (10g, 3a). Holton has missed the last two games with an injury, but is expected to play against Hopkins. Defensively, everything starts in the cage with senior All-America candidate Jon Higdon, who sports a 6.95 goals against average and a.584 save percentage. Last season, Higdon took over for Mickey Jarboe, who had twice earned First Team All-America honors, and quickly established himself as one of the top goalies in the nation as he posted a 7.18 goals against average and a.564 save percentage. These Are The Facts: Johns Hopkins enters this week s game against Navy with an all-time record of (.753) in 114 seasons of play. The Blue Jays own seven NCAA titles, 29 USILA titles, and 6 ILA titles for a total of 42 national championships. What 800 Means: With the 10-7 win over Villanova, Johns Hopkins became the first collegiate lacrosse program to amass 800 wins. Captain My Captain: Senior defender P.J. DiConza (Manhasset, NY/Manhasset), senior midfielder Matt Hanna (Geneva, NY/Geneva), senior goalie Nick Murtha (Manhasset, NY/Manhasset), junior attackman Bobby Benson (Baltimore, MD/ McDonogh) and junior midfielder Adam Doneger (Hewlett, NY/Lynbrook) have been selected as team captains for Johns Hopkins this season. All In the Family: For the second consecutive season, the Johns Hopkins coaching staff consists entirely of Johns Hopkins graduates. Head coach Dave Pietramala and assistant coaches Seth Tierney (class of 1991), Bill Dwan (1991), and Howard Offit (1981) all earned their degree at JHU. Prior to last season when Pietramala, Tierney, Dwan and Offit also comprised the Blue Jay coaching staff, the last time the entire coaching staff was made up of JHU graduates was 1984, when the Blue Jays were coached by Don Zimmerman (1976), who was assisted by Jerry Pfeiffer (1966), Joe Devlin (1978), Fred Smith (1950), Joe Cowan (1969), and Dennis Townsend (1966). Brother Act: Sophomore Corey Harned is the younger brother of Chris Harned, who played attack for the Blue Jays from Freshman Peter LeSueur is the younger brother of Paul LeSueur, who played midfield for the Blue Jays from and served as a team captain as a senior. Tough: Johns Hopkins season-opening game against Princeton was the latest for the Blue Jays against the defending national champion. Hopkins has now played the defending national champion every year since 1973 (the longest such streak in the nation). The Blue Jays have won six of their last nine and nine of their last 14 games against defending national champions, including wins over Princeton in 1995, 1999, 2002 and Syracuse in 1994, 1996 and Tougher: The game earlier this season against top-ranked Syracuse was also the latest in a long line of games for the Blue Jays against the number one ranked team in the nation. Since 1994, JHU has played 15 games against teams which were ranked number one in the nation at the time of the game. Hopkins is 8-7 in those 15 games, including the season-opening win against Princeton. Currently, JHU has won three straight and five of its last seven against teams ranked number one. The Toughest: Johns Hopkins will once again play the most difficult schedule in the nation, a fact that was cemented with release of the Faceoff Lacrosse 2002 Strength of Schedule Rankings (right). The Blue Jays have a strength of schedule rating of 175 to easily outdistance the field in the battle for the toughest schedule in the nation. The Blue Jays will play the other five consensus top six teams in the nation (Princeton/Syracuse/Towson/Virginia/Maryland) and seven of the top 10. Hopkins plays three of last season s Final Four teams and three other teams which advanced to the national quarterfinals. Getting Tougher: As if Hopkins doesn t already play the most difficult schedule in the nation, the Blue Jays will be adding Duke to their schedule beginning next season. Home Sweet Home: The home white uniforms are always a welcome site for the Blue Jays. Currently, Johns Hopkins has won nine straight, 22 of its last 25 and 28 of its last 31 games at Homewood Field. JHU is 10-1 at home under head coach Dave Pietramala. Anytime, Anywhere: Including this week s game at Navy, 19 of JHU s last 20 road games have been against team s ranked in the top 15 at the time of the game.

3 Johns Hopkins vs. Navy The Last Meeting #13 Navy 11 April 21, 2001 #6 Johns Hopkins 13 Homewood Field BALTIMORE, Md. Freshman attackman Conor Ford scored a career-high five goals on just five shots and the sixthranked Johns Hopkins men s lacrosse team erased an early three-goal deficit en route to a victory over 13 th -ranked Navy. The win is the 27 th straight for Johns Hopkins against Navy dating back to 1974 and the Blue Jays improve to 6-3 with the victory. Navy had its two-game winning streak snapped an falls to 7-5 with the loss. Ford scored all five of his goals during a 10-4 Hopkins run that turned an early 4-1 deficit into an 11-8 advantage midway through the fourth quarter. After sophomore Bobby Benson trimmed the Navy lead to 4-2 with just 19 seconds remaining in the first quarter, Ford went to work. He sandwiched goals around an Eddie McKinnon tally for Navy to make it 5-4 with 11:53 left in the second period and tallied the third goal in a three-goal run for the Blue Jays to close the half that gave JHU its first lead of the game at 7-6 with 1:52 remaining in the second quarter. Junior midfielder Matt Hanna and senior midfielder Conor Denihan scored the first two goals during the three-goal spree, which came after Brandon Cornes had bumped the lead to 6-4 with 10:45 left in the period. Ford wasted little time extending Hopkins halftime lead as his fourth goal of the game just 34 seconds into the third quarter gave JHU a two-goal lead at 8-6. Navy tied the game for the final time at 8-8 as Adam Borcz and Eddy Holton scored just 1:01 apart midway through the period, but Hanna and Ford answered with back-to-back goals to make it Borcz sandwiched his third and fourth goals of the game around another Hanna tally to make it with 8:08 to play, but consecutive goals by Adam Doneger and Benson just 10 seconds apart late in the game gave JHU what proved to be an insurmountable lead with 4:05 to play. Nick Lockwood closed out the scoring for Navy with just 1:25 remaining and the Blue Jays were able to hold off Navy in the final minute. Ford, who has scored 13 goals this season on just 17 shots, is just the second Johns Hopkins freshman in the last nine seasons to score five goals in a game (Benson scored five against Loyola last season). Hanna s three goals and four points are both career-highs, as were senior midfielder Eric Wedin s four assists and freshman midfielder Kevin Boland s three assists. In all, 12 of Hopkins 13 goals on the day were assisted. Sophomore goalie Rob Scherr made 14 saves in goal for Hopkins, including 10 in the second half. Borcz led the way for Navy with his four-goal performance, while Michael Cataffo added two goals and three assists. The Midshipmen had five other players register one goal and three other players picked up assists, but only Borcz and Cataffo posted multi-point games for Navy. The 11 goals the Midshipmen scored are the most allowed by Johns Hopkins this season. Jon Higdon made 13 saves in goal for Navy, including five in the first quarter when Navy jumped out to the quick lead. Cataffo scored both of his goals during the opening quarter for Navy. Wedin won 18-of-27 faceoffs on the day and picked up a career-high 16 ground balls.

He won 8-of-12 against Villanova and he is now 42-for-83 (.506) on the year with 17 ground balls to his credit. More Scenery Changes: Sophomore Conor Ford (Timonium, MD/St. Paul s) started most of last season on attack and, like junior Adam Doneger, is starting on Hopkins first midfield unit this season.

More Nick: Nick Murtha s effort in goal helped Hopkins hold Princeton to just five goals, the fewest goals the Blue Jays have allowed in a season-opener since 1983, when JHU knocked off UMBC, The Final Nick: Nick Murtha is the first Johns Hopkins goalie since Larry Quinn in 1983 to win the first three starts of his career. Saving the Day: Nick Murtha registered a career-high 18 saves while allowing just eight goals in the 9-8 win over Syracuse.

Last season, McDermott finished sixth on the team in scoring with seven goals and 10 assists for 17 points. Not Your Average Joe: Joe McDermott registered his first two points of the season with a goal and an assist in the win over Hofstra.

Go Figure: Kevin Boland s three goals against Syracuse were one more than he had scored in his previous 14 career games combined. More Figure: With one goal (which tied the game and sent it to overtime) and one assist (on the game-winner) against Maryland Kevin Boland is second on the team in scoring with 11 goals and 12 assists for 23 points. Last season, he had one goal and six assists for seven points in 12 games. For Comparison s Sake: Kevin Boland has not started a game yet this season and already has 23 points in nine games. His 23 points in nine games this season are already more than any non-starter had throughout the entire 2001 season. Something About Number One: In three career games against teams ranked number one in the nation, Kevin Boland has four goals and five assists for nine points. Muir of a Good Thing: One of the most athletic and versatile players on the team, junior Tim Muir (Collingdale, PA/Episcopal) tallied seven goals and three assists in 10 games last season. This season, Muir is anchoring Hopkins defensive midfield unit. He currently has 22 ground balls to his credit and is helping Hopkins hold the opposition to 8.00 goals per game. He had a career-high five ground balls against Ohio State. Shawn, Brandon, and Brendan Who: Last season, seniors Shawn Nadelen, Brandon Testa, and Brendan Shook started on close defense and anchored a unit which allowed an average of exactly nine goals per game. Despite losing the three, who all earned All-America honors as least once in their career, the Blue Jays have allowed an average of just 8.00 goals per game through nine games. One Good Switch Deserves Another: Sophomore Corey Harned (Holbrook, NY/Sachem) was a standout attackman in high school, played short-stick defensive middie last season, and is listed as Hopkins top long stick defensive middie this season. He picked up a career-high seven ground balls in the win over Villanova and added a team-high six in the win over Maryland. He currently ranks second on the team with 35 ground balls through nine games. Long in the Tooth: Senior defender P.J. DiConza (Manhasset, NY/Manhasset) entered the season having played in 32 games with four starts to his credit. The next four players listed as close defenders (Michael Peyser, Dan DiPietro, Chris Watson, Tom Garvey) entered the season having played in a total of 26 games with one start

6 Johns Hopkins In the NCAA Statistics (Team Statistics) Extra-Man Offense: 2nd (.486/17-of-35) Winning Percentage: T3rd (.889/7-1) Scoring Defense: Man-Down Defense: Faceoff Winning Percentage: 9th (8.00 goals/game) T14th (.758/25-of-33) 19th (.548/102-of-186) Johns Hopkins In the NCAA Statistics (Individual Statistics) Faceoff Winning Percentage: Goals Against Average: Save Percentage: Kyle Harrison (18th/.588) Nick Murtha (12th/7.97) Nick Murtha (13th/.600) Holding Them Down: P.J. DiConza held Princeton sophomore attackman Ryan Boyle to just one goal in the win over the Tigers, and that came with less than a minute to play in regulation. More Holding: P.J. DiConza held Syracuse sophomore attackman Mike Powell to just one assist in the win over the Orangemen. Powell entered the game with 15 goals and 11 assists for 26 points in four games. The Numbers Don t Lie: P.J. DiConza was enjoying a standout season last year as Hopkins long stick middie before being lost for the season with a knee injury prior to the game against Maryland. Johns Hopkins had not allowed more than 10 goals and was allowing an average of just 7.3 goals per game before his injury. After he was lost for the year, the Blue Jays did not hold an opponent to less than 10 goals in any game and allowed an average of 11.4 goals per game in their final five games. Since the beginning of the 2001 season, Johns Hopkins has allowed more than 10 goals in a game that P.J. DiConza has played in just twice. Coming Full Circle: Junior Mike Peyser (Cold Spring Harbor, NY/Cold Spring Harbor) arrived at Hopkins as a close defenseman and spent most of his freshman year playing there. He even earned a start against Maryland on close defense as a rookie. Last season, he played the first seven games of the season as a short stick defensive middie before playing the rope the final five games of the season after P.J. DiConza was lost for the year with an injury. This season, he s back as a starter on close defense and held Princeton s Sean Hartofilis to no goals and Syracuse attackman Josh Coffman to just one goal. Through nine games, he currently has 22 ground balls to his credit. He had 20 ground balls all of last season. For Pete s Sake: Freshman Peter LeSueur (Garden City, NY/Garden City) posted the first multi-goal game of his career with two goals in the game against Virginia. More Pete: Peter LeSueur picked up two more goals and added an assist in the win over Albany for his first career three-point game. Another Pete: Peter LeSueur posted the first four-point game of his career with a two-goal, two-assist showing against Villanova and added one goal and one assist in the win over Ohio State. He now has nine goals and seven assists for 16 points.

More Barrie Ball: Kyle Barrie posted the first three-point game of his career with a one-goal, two-assist effort against Albany. When 12 Equals 3: Johns Hopkins has scored a season-high 12 goals twice this season. In both instances (vs. North Carolina and Ohio State) Kyle Barrie has scored three goals. Against UNC, he scored three of Hopkins first seven goals and assisted on another in the first 35 minutes of the game. The three goals and four points were both career highs. Against Ohio State, he scored twice during an opening 7-0 run and also scored the final goal of the game. Sudden Death: Kyle Barrie scored the game-winning goal just 2:15 into overtime to give JHU a 9-8 win over Maryland. More Sudden Death: Kyle Barrie is the first freshman in school history to score a game-winning goal in overtime. Notice a Trend: Through the first four games of the season, Kyle Barrie scored three goals and added one assist and JHU averaged 8.00 goals per game. In the last five games, he has nine goals and six assists and JHU has averaged 10.6 goals per game. Elementary My Dear Watson: Freshman Chris Watson (Yorktown, NY/Yorktown) has wasted little time establishing himself as the cornerstone of the JHU defense for the future. He has started all nine games and is helping lead a JHU defense that is allowing just 8.00 goals per game. He has 18 ground balls on the year, including a personal-best four in the win over UNC. More Elementary: Chris Watson scored a 1590 on his SATs. Putting Out the (Offensive) Fire: Freshman defenseman Tom Garvey (Garden City, NY/Garden City), who has served as a junior firefighter in his hometown of Garden City, NY, has been a key member of a Johns Hopkins defense that has kept opposing offenses to a mere smolder through nine games. Garvey, who is seeing extended playing time at the rope, has helped JHU hold teams to an average of just 8.00 goals per game and has eight ground balls on the year.
