THIS WEEK
Dartmouth men's lacrosse will play its second of three Tuesday games this season, this time for a tough test against Ohio State under the lights of Ohio Stadium.

LAST TIME OUT
Five goals in each of the first three quarters lifted the Big Green over the Red Storm of St. John's on Saturday.
·      With his five points from two goals and three assists, fifth-year George Prince became the 23rd player in program history to reach 100 points and the first since Ari Sussman in 2010.
·      Colin McGill led both teams with six goals and two assists for a career-high eight points. He was named the Ivy League Rookie of the Week for his performance.
·      Daniel Hincks won his fourth game, making seven saves while allowing seven goals. Matt Paul and Henry Bonnie also had hat tricks.
·      Mason Morel made his collegiate debut in net with under 10 minutes to go in the fourth.
·      The game was one-sided right from the get-go and Dartmouth sported a 5-1 lead after the first and a 10-4 advantage at the half.

HINCKS COMING UP BIG
Not only is Hincks first in the conference in goals against average (8.60) and save percentage (.626), but he is also stacking up very well against other goalies the entire country over. He is second in save percentage and tied for second in goals against average.

MOVING ON UP
The Big Green are tied for sixth with Fairfield in the New England rankings after being listed seventh last week. The group is led by Boston University, followed soon after by Harvard, Yale and Brown.

SCOUTING THE BUCKEYES
Ohio State heads into its third straight home game with a record of 5-2. The Buckeyes kicked off 2022 on a four-game winning streak after very decisive wins over Detroit (18-7), Cleveland State (17-9), North Carolina (20-8) and Harvard (17-12) before dropping two of their next three to Cornell (14-11) and Denver (14-12).

Jack Myers lead with 40 points from 19 goals and 21 assists, leading the Big10 in assists per game (3.00) while being third in the conference in points per game (5.71).

LAST TIME AGAINST OHIO STATE
The last time the teams met was on Feb. 21, 2015, in Columbus for Dartmouth's season opener, a game the Big Green lost by a score of 15-5. The contest was pretty even through the first half until six third-quarter goals put the home team up, 11-4.

LEADING THE WAY
Prince is still first in goals (11), assists (7) and points (18), while McGill is just two points behind. Joe Azelby and Mitchell Myers lead the way with 23 ground balls apiece, while Myers has taken the majority of the faceoffs, going 51-91 (.560). Dartmouth is currently first in the Ivy League in faceoff percentage (.555).
