CALDWELL, Idaho – A five-goal, six assist effort by

Brad Hale led No. 8 The College of Idaho men's lacrosse team to a 21-4 win over Western Oregon on Sunday.
The offensive fireworks were not the only impressive effort on the windy day, noted head coach

Jacob Wong stepped up big in the cage."
Wong, who earned his first start at goalkeeper, made six saves and four ground balls in the win. C of I scored eight goals in the first two quarters en route to a 16-4 halftime lead as they also had a 37-12 advantage in shots through the first 30 minutes.
