The Dolphins (6-5, 2-1 ASUN) were led by graduate student goalie <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/ryan-della-rocco\/7784\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7784\" target=\"_blank\">Ryan Della Rocco<\/a> who finished with a season-high 18 saves.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sophomore <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/daylin-john-hill\/7796\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7796\" target=\"_blank\">Daylin John-Hill<\/a> led the offense with one goal and three assists on the day.<\/p>\n<p>It was all Dolphins in the first quarter. Senior <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/tate-jones\/8685\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"8685\" target=\"_blank\">Tate Jones<\/a> dodged to the middle, with his shot creeping past the goalie for the opener. John-Hill took it himself for the second JU tally, then senior <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/nicky-brown\/7775\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7775\" target=\"_blank\">Nicky Brown<\/a> buried a pass from fellow senior <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/jack-taylor\/7886\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7886\" target=\"_blank\">Jack Taylor<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Junior midfielder\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/william-krupsky\/7863\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7863\" target=\"_blank\">William Krupsky<\/a> powered a shot in the back of the net to cap off a 4-0 first quarter for JU.<\/p>\n<p>The Utes responded with four goals of their own in the second quarter, but a notch from freshman <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/zane-czeschin\/8557\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"8557\" target=\"_blank\">Zane Czeschin<\/a> kept Jacksonville in front, 5-4, at the halftime break.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor opened the second-half scoring, firing a step-down hammer off a feed from John-Hill. After another Utah goal, graduate student <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/charlie-digennaro\/7786\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7786\" target=\"_blank\">Charlie DiGennaro<\/a> buried a long-range effort on a breakaway to put JU up two with a quarter to play.<\/p>\n<p>The Utes scored four goals in the fourth to take a two-goal lead into the final minutes of the game. Krupsky scored his second with seven seconds to play, but the Dolphins couldn&#8217;t get a clean shot off the final seconds of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Game Notes&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tDella Rocco has made double-digit saves five times this season.&#13;<br \/>\n\tTaylor has finished with at least three points in every game this season.\u00a0&#13;<br \/>\n\tCzeschin has scored in every game this season.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\nHead Coach <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/coaches\/john-galloway\/1354\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"1354\" target=\"_blank\">John Galloway<\/a><br \/>\n&#8220;Obviously a very disappointing loss today, but I&#8217;m proud of our guys. There were plenty of opportunities we wanted back, but ultimately we came up short and we have to live with that and let that fuel our next step forward.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I am proud of our defensive effort to hold a team that has been scoring over 20 goals to under 10. That group, led by <a href=\"https:\/\/judolphins.com\/sports\/mens-lacrosse\/roster\/ryan-della-rocco\/7784\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"7784\" target=\"_blank\">Ryan Della Rocco<\/a>, will continue to fight for more time together. This group has never backed down for the challenge, and I know we won&#8217;t when Monday rolls around.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Up Next<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nThe Dolphins will travel to Louisville, Kentucky to face the Bellarmine Knights next Saturday.
