MORAVIAN’S DANIEL LARSON NAMED MIDDLE ATLANTIC CONFERENCE MEN’S LACROSSE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

ANNVILLE, PA --- Sophomore attack Daniel Larson (Dover, DE/Dover HS) of the Moravian College men’s lacrosse team has been named the Middle Atlantic Conference Player of the Week for his performance last week.

Larson helped Moravian to a 1-2 record last week including the team’s first-ever win in Middle Atlantic Conference action. Larson finished the week with 16 points on 12 goals and four assists while scooping up nine ground balls. Larson had five goals and an assist in a 15-14 loss at DeSales University to open the week before scoring half of Moravian’s goals in an 18-8 non-conference loss to York (PA) College. Larson finished the week with three goals including the game-winner and three assists in the Greyhounds’ 15-11 win at the University of Scranton. Moravian is in its second season of varsity lacrosse, and the win at Scranton was the first in MAC action for the Greyhounds.
