by Nathan Baliva

MONMOUTH Ill. (02/22/2023) — The Monmouth College men's lacrosse team got four goals each from Carlos Hernandez (Billings, Montana) and Kain Donohoo (St. Charles, Illinois) but lost 20-12 to Wabash College on Tuesday night.

Wabash scored two early goals and added a third with 6:03 to play in the first quarter. Monmouth got on the board 37 seconds into the second quarter as Hernandez scored on an assist from Donohoo. The Little Giants responded with two goals in the next three minutes to go on top 5-1. Hernandez scored again on a feed from Donohoo with 11:19 to play in the half.

Kai Johnson (Sun Prairie, Wisconsin) scored his first collegiate goal on an assist from Michael Casey (Chicago, Illinois). Donohoo followed with a goal and the Scots were down 6-4 with 7:20 left in the half. Wabash stopped the run with a goal at the 3:58 mark for a 7-4 lead. Monmouth goalie Nehemiah Declaw (Aurora, Colorado) had to leave the game with an injury and faceoff man Gordon Kiesgen (Spring Grove, Illinois) took his spot, playing the position for the first time. Wabash scored five times in the next three minutes for a 12-4 lead.

Declaw returned to start the second half and Wabash extended the lead to 14-4. Hernandez scored his third goal of the game to stop the Wabash run with 13:30 left in the quarter. Donohoo scored with 9:54 to go in the quarter and Johnson scored 31 seconds later for a 14-7 game. After Wabash scored, Casey used a spin move to get past a defender and scored his first goal of the game. Hernandez and Donohoo teamed up for another goal as the Scots cut the deficit to 15-9. Wabash responded with a goal at the 3:31 mark and neither team scored the rest of the quarter.

Wabash scored to start the fourth quarter and Donohoo answered with a goal. Wabash extended the lead to 18-10 before Ben LaFrenere (Schaumburg, Illinois) scored his first collegiate goal. Wabash made it 19-11 with 4:43 to play and Donohoo scored his fourth goal of the game with 1:22 to play. Wabash got the final tally with 25 seconds left.

Hernandez and Donohoo both led the Scots with four goals. Donohoo had four assists while Johnson scored twice and Casey had one goal to go with two assists.

Monmouth won at Wabash 9-7 last year and beat the Little Giants 18-6 at April Zorn Stadium in 2020. The Scots hit the road for the first time this season with a game at Marian University on Saturday. Faceoff in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin is set for 3 p.m. The next five games are on the road before the men host Beloit College on Saturday, March 18.
