SOUTH BEND, Ind. (2/19/2022) - The University of Detroit Mercy men's lacrosse team went on the road in another tough trip as the Titans fell at nationally-ranked Notre Dame, 24-2, on Saturday night.

Redshirt freshman Jakob Hemme made 13 saves inbetween the pipes, while graduate senior Paul Manuszak posted a pair of caused turnovers with four ground balls.

Graduate senior Brett Erskine and freshman Nolan Graalman each had a goal, the 75th for Erskine and the first collegiate score for Graalman.

The Titans (0-3) fell behind early as #4/4 Notre Dame (1-0) netted the game's first eight strikes before Erskine found the back of the cage. Graalman then took a pass from junior Ryan Birney and beat the keeper left in the second period. 

Junior Kyle Loken picked up three ground balls and seniors Kelson Connors and Mason Kamminga had two apiece. Sophomore Connor Baratta won nine faceoffs. 

The Titans saw 20 of their 38 shots on net.

Detroit Mercy will return to action in two weeks when they visit Jesuit-rival Marquette on March 5.
