HANOVER, N.H. – Dartmouth men's lacrosse fell to No. 12 Penn, 16-12, in the Big Green's final home game of the season.

Colin McGill and Tommy Rogan each ended the day with a team-leading four points, while five other players had at least one point. Matt Paul and George Prince ended up on the scoresheet in their last contest at Scully-Fahey Field. In net, Daniel Hincks had nine saves.

Dartmouth (4-8, 0-5) vs. No. 12 Penn (6-4, 3-3)
The Quakers scored twice in less than two minutes to take a 2-0 edge less than five minutes into the opening quarter. Peter Lapina's eighth of the year 56 seconds later cut that lead in half, but three consecutive tallies for the visitors put them up, 5-1, heading to the second. Hincks had an important save right as time was expiring to keep the score as is.

Penn started the second quarter with another goal before three in a row for Dartmouth sent the momentum the other direction. Rogan, Henry Bonnie and McGill (man-up) all found the back of the net within two and a half minutes to cut the Quakers' advantage to two. Having been kept quiet for almost 10 minutes, the visitors ended the Big Green's run with 4:14 to go. McGill scored another with 1:24 remaining, while Penn got its three-goal lead back in the final 34 seconds (8-5).

Three straight for Dartmouth made for a tied game. Rogan started things off, Nate Davis got the Big Green within one, and McGill's third tied the score at 8-8. The teams played the next five minutes like that before four Quaker goals in the final 3:20 put Penn back in control (12-8).

Another for the visitors less than a minute into the fourth made it five unanswered goals. Having already assisted on a goal earlier, Paul scored two tallies in a row to lessen the Quakers' lead. Penn scored two in a row before McGill and Davis scored back-to-back goals 26 seconds apart. One more for Penn with 15 ticks left ended the game (16-12).

Dartmouth will end the 2022 season next weekend at Brown.
