In Brief
Blue Jays replace scheduled Duke
game with Mount St. Mary's
The Blue Jay men's lacrosse team,
which was scheduled to play Duke
on April 8, added another game to its
schedule last week to ensure that the Blue
Jays would play 12 regular season games.
The road trip to Durham, N.C., postponed
and later canceled because of an ongoing
investigation into an alleged rape at a team
party, was replaced with a visit on Monday,
April 10, from Mount St. Mary's, the first
match-up in the two schools' histories.
Playing on a soaked Homewood Field, the
Jays beat the opposing Mountaineers 19 to 6.
