In its final non-conference game of the season, the Muhlenberg men's lacrosse team scored eight straight goals in the first and second quarters and went on to a 16-10 home win against Kean.

The Mules (5-4), who open Centennial Conference play at home against Swarthmore on Wednesday, have averaged more than 15 goals in their current three-game winning streak.

Junior Chase Kusko led Muhlenberg with nine points on three goals and six assists against Kean, surpassing the career milestones of 150 points, 100 assists, and 50 goals. He now ranks second in program history with 156 career points and has two of the four games in which a Mule has scored at least nine points. Kusko also is responsible for five of the six times a Muhlenberg player has recorded at least six assists.

After the Cougars (5-5), who defeated the Mules last season in the first meeting between the two teams, scored the first goal of the game, Kusko assisted sophomore Luc Belvill and junior Charlie Falk on a pair of goals that gave Muhlenberg the lead for good. The assist on Falk's man-up goal was the 100th of his career.

The Mules would go on to net six more goals before Kean answered, with Belvill (pictured above) and Kusko scoring a pair apiece.

Muhlenberg led by seven or eight goals for most of the second half. 

Belvill tied his career high of four goals, while freshman Parker Kusko joined his older brother in recording a hat trick. Junior Daniel Friedel put in a pair of goals, and senior defensive middie Thomas Olifiers notched his first goal of the season.

Freshman Jacob Apat recorded the first two points of his career, assisting on consecutive goals by the Kusko brothers late in the first quarter.

Sophomore Charlie Lowery recorded a team-high four ground balls, and senior Jace Riley Day made 13 saves.
