SEWANEE, Tenn. – The Tigers celebrated their seniors as they defeated Rhodes for their last regular scheduled home game this season, 13-11. Zach Crain and Devon Root tallied four points off three goals and an assist. 

Drew Perun tacked on 12 ground balls as he went 17-of-27 from the dot. Joe Orem followed Perun with five ground balls for a season-high five ground balls. Root also picked up four ground balls with one caused turnover. Defensively, Jack Selner and Brady Cole both caused two turnovers. 

Charles Moran collected three points from one goal and two assists while Niko Maheras collected two goals. The Tigers had five other players tally a point. 

The Lynx got on the board first as they tallied the game's first goal off of a Sewanee turnover. 

Sewanee answered with a goal at the 11:16 mark of the first quarter with an unassisted goal by Griffin Peterson. Following Sewanee's first goal, the Tigers capitalized with their second goal of the game as Manoli Loupassi connected with Niko Maheras.

Rhodes tallied four unanswered goals to take a five to two lead with 1:57 to play in the first quarter. 

41 seconds later Corbet Darden found the back of the net to cut the Lynx lead to two goals. 

A faceoff win by Drew Perun 58 seconds into the second quarter led to a goal by Devon Root to cut the lead to one. The Tigers capitalized on a man-up opportunity with a goal by Zach Crain off of a Root assist.

The Lynx took the lead again, but Sewanee again answered off a man-up goal from Crain, this time with an assist from Charles Moran. 

Hawkins Schnabel gave the Tigers the lead with six minutes to go in the second quarter with an unassisted goal, but the Lynx tallied the last goal to send the game into halftime tied at seven a piece.

Drew Downes tallied the first two goals of the third quarter for the Lynx. However, a faceoff win from Perun led to a goal from Sage Cookerly thirty seconds later. Rhodes followed with a faceoff win of their own and a quick goal for a 10-8 lead. 

Another win from the dot by Perun led to a goal from Crain to start a four goal run by Sewanee. Moran tallied the next with an assist from Crain for a 10-10 game. A two straight faceoff violations from Rhodes gave Sewanee back-to-back possessions and they capitalized on both. The first Maheras found the back of the next and the second Root tallied for a two-goal lead.
