Presidents earn first Landmark win since 2012

MADISON, N.J. -- Luke Georgi broke a 6-6 tie with two minutes remaining and Kyle Heinig followed with an insurance goal 34 seconds later as Washington & Jefferson opened Landmark Conference men's lacrosse play with an 8-6 victory over Drew Sunday.  

Under the direction of first-year Head Coach Kevin Kustron, the Presidents improved to 6-1 overall and already eclipsed their season win total from last year (5-10).  Sunday's win over Drew was the Presidents' first Landmark Conference victory since edging the Merchant Marine Academy on April 21, 2012.  

Heinig scored two of the biggest goals of the game for W&J and finished with a game-high three goals.  He tied the game with 2:07 left in the fourth quarter which was followed seven seconds later by Georgi's eventual game winner.  Heinig's insurance tally capped a three-goal rally in a span of 41 seconds which changed the game's final outcome.  

Jacob Succop continued to impress in goal for the Presidents after compiling 16 saves.  

W&J led 2-1 at halftime, but Drew (0-3) scored five times in the first 23 minutes of the second half to notch a 6-5 lead with 8:24 remaining.  Succop kept the Presidents alive with some key saves until Heinig and Georgi won the game on the offensive end.  

Tim Angell scored twice for Washington & Jefferson, while John Bursch and Sidhartha Sharma also added goals.  Drew outshot W&J 29-27, but W&J held a 9-8 advantage in faceoff wins, all nine of which were claimed by Ryan Quan.  Quan added a team-high nine ground balls.
