Box Score BOSTON, Mass. – Seeing their first action in 357 days, the Pace University men's lacrosse team opened 2021 with a 14-2 defeat at Division I Boston University on Saturday afternoon.

In what should serve as great preparation for their NE10 slate, Pace's season-opener came about via a late schedule opening by BU. The Setters will now have a few weeks off prior to hosting Saint Rose to begin conference play on March 20.

Junior goalkeeper Louis Ragusa (Yorktown Heights, N.Y./Yorktown) served as a bright spot for Pace in the first half, especially in the opening quarter. The 2019 NE10 Rookie of the Year posted eight of his 14 stops during the first 15 minutes of the game. Ragusa has now tallied double-figure saves in 11 career contests.

Pace's first goal of the day, scored by sophomore Anthony Caputo (Westbury, N.Y./W.T Clarke), cut the Terriers' lead to 3-1 early in the second quarter.

Senior Adam Story (Middleton, Mass./Masconomet Regional) provided the Setters' second tally of the game at 7:14 of the second quarter to make the score 8-2.

Freshman Maxwell Streety (Orchard Park, N.Y./Orchard Park) led the Blue and Gold with three ground balls, while going 7-for-11 in face-off attempts.

BU was led by five different multi-goal scorers, including a four-tally effort from Christian Quadrino. Jett Dziamo and Timmy Ley each chipped in three goals of their own.
