NEWARK, DE -- Stony Brook freshman Jordan McBride exploded for a school and stadium record 10 goals and also dished out two assists as the Seawolves knocked off No. 7 ranked University of Delaware in a wild, high-scoring men’s lacrosse matchup Saturday evening at Rullo Stadium.

The Blue Hens (5-2) lost their second straight game after starting out 5-0 despite another big effort from sophomore Curtis Dickson (at right), who upped his NCAA leading goal total to 24 with a team-high five goals and extended his goal-scoring streak to 15 games.

The game featured two of the top scoring offenses in the nation as Delaware entered ranked No. 6 nationally with 12.6 per game while Stony Brook was at No. 7 with 12.0 goals per game.

Stony Brook, which fell to No. 2 Virginia 15-13 in its season opener and was coming off a 17-15 win over Siena last Saturday, evened its mark to 2-2 as McBride set a school and Rullo Stadium record with 10 goals and 12 total points.

His 10 goals was just one shy of the NCAA Division I record and was the most since Towson’s Kevin Sturm scored 10 goals vs. Gannon in 1999. Owen Adams added three goals and an assist, Kevin Crowley scored twice and dished two assist, and Ryan Duch scored once and handed out six assists.

Delaware, which suffered its first loss of the season with an 18-10 setback to No. 12 Georgetown Wednesday, allowed its highest single game goal total since a 19-11 loss to No. 1 ranked Loyola in 1999 and the 37 goals allowed in consecutive games is the most since by the Hens since dropping consecutive games of 20-13 to Towson and 21-7 to North Carolina in 1997.

Martin Cahill added three goals and assist for the Blue Hens while Cam Howard had a goal and three assists and Vincent Giordano dished out three assists.

The first half featured four ties, the last at 8-8 when McBride scored his fourth goal of the stanza off a feed from Duch with 1:40 left in the half. Delaware had used a 4-1 run capped by a goal by Howard with 7:05 left in the first half to give the Hens a 7-6 lead and a goal by Dickson with 2:55 left put UD up 8-7.

The Hens scored four unanswered goals during the first two minutes of the third quarter, one each by J.J. Moran, Anthony Ruiz, Kyle Rotelli, and Dickson, to take a 12-8 lead. But the Seawolves stormed back with 5-0 run as McBride scored four straight goals over a span of seven minutes too give his team a 13-12 lead.

The Hens came back to tie the game for the last time with 1:05 left in the stanza as Sean Kostkowski scored his first goal of the year to make it 13-13.

But that would be the Hens last lead of the night as Stony Brook then reeled off four straight goals, including two by Adams, to go up 17-13 with 13:13 left to play. Delaware never got closer than three goals the rest of the way.
