Syracuse lax beats Duke 9-8 in overtime thriller at C-NS high school

Brendan Curry scored a late overtime goal to lift the Syracuse men’s lacrosse team to a dramatic 9-8 win over No. 2 Duke outside at C-NS high school on Sunday.

The Orange trailed by four goals with under six minutes left in regulation before tying things up and forcing overtime.

Stephen Refuss scored the game-tying goal with just over a minute left.

The game was moved to the C-NS high school field outdoors due to the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament at the Carrier Dome.

The Orange offense was only able to score 3 goals in the first three quarters but netted 5 in the fourth.
