Newport, Rhode Island – Gaudet Field
Tuesday, April 5, 2022

Summary
MIDDLETOWN, R.I. - The Salve Regina University men's lacrosse team overcame an early 2-0 deficit to defeat visiting Nichols College 15-7 in Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) action Tuesday evening at Gaudet Field.

Turning Point
