The five points and three assists were season-highs for the first-year Raider attackman. TEWAARATON NAMES WALSH; NOW TOP-10 IN THREE CATEGORIES For the second year in a row, Colgate s Ryan Walsh is among the initial group of 50 studentathletes on the Tewaaraton Award Watch List for national player of the year. Walsh has combined for 12 points in Colgate s three Patriot League games, scoring seven goals with five assists. The senior attackman is third on the team in points with 17 and tied for second with 10 goals. Walsh is also second with seven assists. Walsh now has 54 assists for his career, tying him with Bill Noonan ( ) for ninth all-time at Colgate. That places Walsh in Colgate s career top 10 for all three scoring categories. He s fifth in goals with 116, and seventh in points with 170. BALANCED RAIDERS CLIP BUCKNELL, 10-8 Jake Danehy did his job in relief and boosted Colgate to a 10-8 Patriot League win over Bucknell. Danehy picked up his first career goalkeeping victory after taking over for starter Brandon Burke, who injured himself late in the first quarter. Danehy finished with seven saves, including six in the pivotal second half. Ryan Walsh led a balanced Colgate attack with two goals and three assists. Anthony Abbadessa, Kevin Adams and Cameron Williams also scored two goals apiece in a close game throughout. FAST START LIFTS GATE PAST LAFAYETTE Quick-start Colgate jumped on Lafayette for seven goals in the first quarter en route to a Patriot League win. Ryan Walsh completed a hat trick in the opening 15 minutes as Colgate led 7-1. The 20thranked Raiders made it 8-1 on Tyler Rigo s goal midway in the second quarter, and still led 8-2 at intermission. Walsh finished with four goals and two assists, while Anthony Abbadessa added two goals and Matt Clarkson three assists. Six other Raiders contributed single goals. Colgate (3-0, 1-0 Patriot) turned the tables on its recent faceoff troubles by winning 17 of 25 draws. Peter Marchetto was a sparkling 15-of including a key grab when the Raiders were a man down in the third quarter that he turned into his first career goal to make it 9-4. ABBADESSA NAMED PATRIOT ROOKIE OF THE WEEK Colgate s Anthony Abbadessa was the Corvias Patriot League Rookie of the Week for his play at Vermont.

3 The Raider attackman posted a five-point game with three goals and two assists in Colgate s 10-8 win. Two of his goals were extra-man opportunities, with assists both times from Matt Clarkson. Abbadessa assisted Clarkson on another extra-man goal, as the Raider teammates combined for 11 of Colgate s 18 points. Abbadessa scored his goals in the first, second and third quarters. The Phoenix native was playing in his second collegiate game and making his second career start. Abbadessa leads the Raiders with four goals and is second on the team with seven points. RAIDERS RIDE PAST VERMONT, 10-8 A six-goal flurry between the second and third quarters helped Colgate post a 10-8 win over Vermont. The Raiders trailed 4-1 after the first period before Ryan Walsh found the net for his second goal of the season. That seemed to spark the visitors, who scored four unanswered goals in the quarter for a 5-4 halftime advantage. Anthony Abbadessa added two assists to his first collegiate hat trick for a five-point game. Matt Clarkson did him one better with a goal and five assists, while Cameron Williams and Chase Wittich scored two goals apiece. BURKE EARNS USILA, PATRIOT LEAGUE HONORS Colgate sophomore Brandon Burke picked up several honors for his performance in last Saturday s 9-5 win at No. 14 Bryant. He was named Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Week, and then received national nods from both the USILA and Baltimore Sun newspaper. Burke, the Patriot League Rookie of the Year last season, picked up where he left off stopping 11 Bulldog shots and allowed five goals in his 60 minutes of work. The sophomore permitted only one fourth-quarter goal as Colgate broke open a 5-4 game with a four-goal final period. It was a good team win, Burke said. Our offense started clicking in the second half and the defense was meshing well. We held them to five goals, and we always want to keep them to around eight. Leo Stouros and John Baker did a great job for us, as always, and our younger guys on offense really stepped up. COLGATE TAKES DOWN NO. 14/19 BRYANT, 9-5 Balanced scoring and a whole-field defensive effort lifted Colgate to an impressive 9-5 win at No. 14/19 Bryant. It was Colgate s first road win over a ranked opponent since the 2012 Raiders toppled No. 1 Massachusetts in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The Raiders bolted from a 2-2 halftime deadlock by scoring three times in the third quarter and four in the fourth. Jack Stebbins and Peter Donato scored twice and five other Raiders found the netting as Colgate toppled Bryant for the fourth straight year in a season-opener.

6 Mike Murphy Head Coach, Fourth Mike Murphy continues to make an impact on Colgate men s lacrosse. The fourth-year Raiders head coach has compiled an impressive record that includes one NCAA tournament berth and appearances each year in the Patriot League Tournament semifinals. Named to his first head coaching position on July 20, 2011, Murphy led the 2012 Raiders to a Patriot League regular-season title en route to the best campaign in program history. Colgate finished 14-4, including a 6-0 road mark, a 6-2 record against nationally-ranked oponents, and a win over undefeated No. 1 Massachusetts in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. The NCAA bid was Colgate s second postseason appearance and its first as an NCAA at-large recipient. The Raiders also secured their first tournament win and advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the first time in school history. The 2012 team set a total of 29 individual and team records, including 13 program marks, 15 Patriot League records and one NCAA season mark with junior Robert Grabher attempting a total of 433 faceoffs in the season. Murphy also coached the first Colgate and Patriot League player to win the Tewaaraton Award with junior Peter Baum, who also received the Enners Award and set eight individual program and league records. Murphy had five members named to the All- Patriot League teams, including 2012 Patriot League Offensive Player of the Year and the league s Rookie of the Year. He had two players named All-Americans, with Baum earning first-team honors and Jeff Ledwick landing a spot as honorable mention. Team records set during the season were the Colgate records for most points (365), goals (236) and assists (129) in a season, as well as most wins for a team and a first-year head coach (14), and the highest national ranking in program history with the No. 8 spot in the final Nike/Inside Lacrosse Media Poll. The team also broke Patriot League Tournament records for most team assists in a game (11), most two-game team points (45), total shots (84), man-up goals (6), and fastest back-to-back goals with five seconds in the championship game. Murphy was selected as an assistant coach for the North Team in the USILA/Lax World Division I-II North-South Senior All-Star Game. Murphy joined the Raiders after serving as an assistant coach at Army. In his seven seasons with the Black Knights, Army was consistently ranked among the best defensive teams both in the Patriot League and nationally under his mentorship, during which he also guided some of the most prolific goalkeepers in Academy history. Murphy joined Army after spending two seasons at Division III Denison in Granville, Ohio, where he was in charge of the Big Red s defensive unit, goalies and faceoff personnel. He also served as an assistant on Denison s football coaching staff and held a position in the Department of Athletics, Physical Education and Recreation as an instructor. Prior to his work at Denison, the University of New Hampshire graduate served as head assistant coach/defensive coordinator at Wingate from The Beverly, Mass., native helped the Bulldogs to their first NCAA Division II National Semifinal appearance in school history as the squad posted a record in Murphy s three seasons on its sideline, while 14 players garnered All-Deep South honors. His 2001 defensive unit finished the season among the national leaders in scoring defense (12th), winning percentage (7th) and goals-against average (10th). Murphy also enjoyed one-year stints at Pfeiffer and Merrimack after his graduation from the University of New Hampshire in the spring of 1996, where he was a three-year letterman for the Wildcats. Murphy is a member of the USILA Division I All-American Committee as well as the USILA Division I Poll Committee. He serves as chair of the Patriot League Men s Lacrosse Coaches Committee, and also serves on the IMLCA Division I Coaches Advisory Board. Murphy and his wife, Jennifer, are the proud parents of two children: son, Colin; and daughter, Dylan Emma. Mike Murphy is in his fourth season as head coach of Colgate Men s Lacrosse. The Raiders earned a bid to the 2012 NCAA tournament as an at-large recipient and have advanced to at least the Patriot LeagueTournament semifinals all three seasons.

Colgate Bryant SMITHFIELD, R.I. -- Balanced scoring and a whole-field defensive effort lifted Colgate to an impressive 9-5 win at No. 14 Bryant. It was Colgate s first road win over a ranked opponent since the 2012 Raiders toppled No. 1 Massachusetts in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The Raiders bolted from a 2-2 halftime deadlock by scoring three times in the third quarter and four in the fourth. Jack Stebbins and Peter Donato scored twice and five other Raiders found the netting as Colgate toppled Bryant for the fourth straight year in a season-opener. Bryant entered the game as the nation s No. 14 team according to the lacrosse media, and No. 19 by USILA. Colgate was a No. 25 preseason selection by Inside Lacossse Magazine. The Raiders won by limited the Bulldogs to just eight clears in 14 attempts, and forcing 21 turnovers. Colgate held a shot advantage. The Raiders never trailed in this one, but it was tight throughout. The game was tied 2-2 at intermission, and Colgate led just 5-4 going to the fourth quarter. That s when the Raiders exploded for four consecutive goals to put the contest away. Sophomore Donato scored the first two goals of his collegiate career, and Stebbins had his first two-goal game. First-year Raiders Wittich and Abbadessa also scored their first career goals. Donato (midfield) and Abbadessa (attack) drew the first starting assignments of their Colgate careers, with Abbadessa obviously making the start in his collegiate debut.

Colgate Vermont BURLINGTON, Vt. -- A six-goal flurry between the second and third quarters helped Colgate post a 10-8 win over Vermont. The Raiders trailed 4-1 after the first period before Ryan Walsh found the net for his second goal of the season. That seemed to spark the visitors, who scored four unanswered goals in the quarter for a 5-4 halftime advantage. Colgate continued its momentum to open the third quarter as Chase Wittich scored his second of the day and Anthony Abbadessa made it a hat trick for a 7-4 margin. Vermont drew within one goal but then Colgate s Matt Clarkson and Tyler Rigo tallied and the Raiders led 9-7 entering the fourth. Cameron Williams scored near the midway point of the final period and Colgate held on for its second straight win to open the season. Abbadessa added two assists to his first collegiate hat trick for a five-point game. Clarkson did him one better with a goal and five assists for a career-high six points, while Williams and Wittich scored two goals apiece. Colgate forced 10 Vermont turnovers in the middle two periods when the Raiders were turning a 4-1 deficit into a 9-7 lead. Shots favored Vermont, 37-33, as did ground balls by a count. Colgate scored five extra-man goals to Vermont s one. The Raiders were credited with a 14-of-16 scorecard on clears, while Vermont finished 13-of-17 Scoring Summary C-V 1st 11:15 V - Weller 0-1 9:39 C - Abbadessa (Clarkson) extra-man 1-1 8:02 V - Barlow (Milligan) 1-2 3:15 V - Barlow 1-3 2:33 V - MacKay 1-4 2nd 11:55 C - Walsh :38 C - Abbadessa (Clarkson) extra-man 3-4 2:27 C - Williams (Clarkson) 4-4 1:21 C - Wittich (Abbadessa) 5-4 3rd 13:27 C - Wittich (Clarkson) extra-man :10 C - Abbadessa :36 V - White (MacKay) :09 V - Barlow 7-6 7:13 C - Clarkson (Abbadessa) extra-man 8-6 1:24 C - Rigo (Walsh) 9-6 0:45 V - Barlow (Weller) 9-7 4th 7:45 C - Williams (Clarkson) extra-man :35 V - Bartlett (Milligan) extra-man 10-8 Colgate Vermont Shots Ground Balls Faceoffs Clears Extra-Man Opportunities Saves 7 13 Turnovers Goals-Assists: Colgate - Abbadessa 3-2, Williams 2-0, Wittich 2-0, Clarkson 1-5, Walsh 1-1, Rigo 1-0.

11 2015 SEASON REVIEW COLGATE 12 Lafayette 10 Feb Tyler s Field, Hamilton Lafayette Colgate HAMILTON -- Quick-start Colgate jumped on Lafayette for seven goals in the first quarter en route to a Patriot League home win. Ryan Walsh completed a hat trick in the opening 15 minutes as Colgate led 7-1. The 20th-ranked Raiders made it 8-1 on Tyler Rigo s goal midway in the second quarter, and still led 8-2 at intermission. But a steady snowfall seemed to cool the Raider jets, and Lafayette rallied with a strong second half. Walsh finished with four goals and two assists, while Anthony Abbadessa added two goals and Matt Clarkson three assists. Six other Raiders contributed single goals. Colgate turned the tables on its recent faceoff troubles by winning 17 of 25 draws. Peter Marchetto was a sparkling 15-of including a key grab when the Raiders were a man down in the third quarter that he turned into his first career goal to make it 9-4.

Colgate Bucknell LEWISBURG, Pa. -- Jake Danehy did his job in relief and boosted the 20th-ranked Raiders to a 10-8 Patriot League win over Bucknell here Saturday. Danehy picked up his first career goalkeeping victory after taking over for starter Brandon Burke, who injured himself late in the first quarter. Danehy finished with seven saves, including six in the pivotal second half. Colgate is 4-0 for the first time since the 1993 Raiders opened with five straight wins. The Raiders also are the only 2-0 team in the Patriot League. Ryan Walsh led a balanced Colgate attack with two goals and three assists. Anthony Abbadessa, Kevin Adams and Cameron Williams also scored two goals apiece in a close game throughout. Just like last week against Lafayette, the Raiders broke from the gate quickly. Colgate led 4-0 by the 8:18 mark of the first quarter as Walsh, Matt Clarkson, Abbadessa and Adams found the net. But Bucknell (2-2, 1-1 Patriot) rallied with five straight goals and a 5-4 lead midway in the second quarter. The last two of those goals came against Danehy, who was seeing his first playing time of the season. But Danehy was getting his bearings and Colgate posted two huge goals before the half Williams and Jack Stebbins doing the honors to lead 6-5 at the break.

12 2015 SEASON REVIEW Fairfield 13 COLGATE 9 March Rafferty Stad., Fairfield, Conn. Colgate Fairfield FAIRFIELD, Conn. -- Colgate s furious fourth-quarter rally made it interesting, but Fairfield held on for a 13-9 win over the Raiders. Colgate scored five unanswered goals over a seven-plusminute stretch of the final period to draw the Raiders within Matt Clarkson and Chase Wittich tallied two goals each during the comeback, and Cameron Williams added the other. But the clock was winding and Fairfield settled it with a goal one minute from time. Fairfield led 10-3 at halftime after scoring six in the first quarter and four in the second. It was still 11-4 heading to the fourth in favor of the Stags, who entered Saturday with all four of its losses by one goal. Matt Clarkson s four-point game led the Raiders offensively. Chase Wittich posted the second two-goal game of his young career. Matt Yeager caused a career-high three turnovers. That number matches the Connor Murphy total of last week (also a career-high) for best on the team this season.

Colgate Cornell ITHACA, N.Y. -- Colgate came from four goals back in the second half and took a late lead against seventh-ranked Cornell, only to see the Big Red score at the end of regulation and in overtime for a 10-9 victory. A Fox Sports 1 nationally televised audience watched the Raiders score five straight goals over a nearly 15-minute stretch between the third and fourth quarters. Colgate had gone from 8-4 down to 9-8 in front with 3½ minutes to play. Cameron Williams, Tyler Rigo and Chase Wittich did the damage during Colgate s rally. Williams and Rigo scored two apiece, and Wittich tallied the other while assisting on the first three. Wittich tied the game solo style with 4:36 left before Williams scored unassisted with 3:34 remaining. But Cornell s Dan Lintner scored his fourth of the game with 1:03 showing in regulation, and Matt Donovan scored his fourth with 1:04 left in overtime to cap the late Big Red reversal. Colgate lost its third straight game and falls to 4-3. The Raiders just missed knocking off their first top-10 opponent since defeating No. 1 Massachusetts in the 2012 NCAAs. Brandon Burke was the star of the game in goal. The Colgate sophomore posted a career-high 16 saves, including nine in the second half as the Raiders were making their comeback. Wittich finished with two goals and three assists to lead the Raider offense. The five points and three assists were season-highs for the first-year Raider attackman.
