Seniors Ben Revak and Presley Conaty Lead Auks' Lacrosse Teams to Victory

During the season opening games for men's and women's lacrosse, both teams made headlines with their victories. The Archmere men's team defeated St. Mark's 16-5 in lacrosse action last Wednesday afternoon. Senior Ben Revak scored six of the Auks' goals during the match, catching the attention of several news outlets. Freshman attackman Mitch Moyer netted three goals and set up another in his first career varsity game to help the Auks capture the win. Senior Robert Baxter finished with two goals and five assists.

Also taking on St. Mark's last Wednesday, Senior Captain Presley Conaty’s three goals helped the Lady Auks secure a 5-4 victory during their season opener. It wasn't until the end of the first half that Presley secured the Auks' first goal, kicking the offense into a groove. Presley and fellow senior Anna Baxter each pushed out a goal to close the half with a 3-3 tie, setting the momentum for Presley's third goal in the second half. Presley's hat trick made WDEL's Delaware Sport Zone "Play of the Week". Senior Kennedy Murphy provided the winning goal two minutes later, and the teams played the final 16:50 with no additional scoring. Archmere goalie sophomore Meredith Wolak kept the Spartans off the board, making at least six outstanding saves.
