- Any questions about No. 11 Towson having a possible letdown against winless UMBC on Saturday were answered in the first 35 seconds of the game. That's when Tigers junior midfielder Tyler Young scored the game's first goal. Towson scored two more in the first period and six more in the second as the Tigers easily defeated rival UMBC, 14-6, in front of nearly 500 at Johnny Unitas Stadium.

Lewnes needs just two more points to reach 100 in his career and 24 goals to become the 10th player in UMBC history to score 100 goals.

- It¿s not a stretch to opine that UMBC must play well on many fronts if it hopes to pull off an upset of No. 6 Johns Hopkins on Saturday at 1 p.m. at UMBC Stadium in Catonsville.
