MEDFORD, Mass.— Senior Max Ettinghausen (Rochester, N.Y.) and juniors Jack Regnery (Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.) and Beau Keough (Brookline, Mass.) combined to score 14 goals and junior Victor Salcedo (Fredericksburg, Va.) and senior Parker Merril (Bethesda, Md.) paired up to win 14 of 23 face-offs as No. 1/1 Tufts University proved too strong for No. 20/20 Babson College, 21-5, in a non-conference men's lacrosse game Tuesday evening at Bello Field.

The Jumbos, defending Division III national champions, remain perfect on the season at 13-0 while the Beavers had a four-game winning streak snapped and dropped to 10-4 overall.

Graduate students Topher Bower (Chicago, Ill.) and Tripp Clark (Byfield, Mass.), sophomores Luke Wang (Simsbury, Conn.) and Camden Matthews (Westford, Mass.) and senior Matt Park (Waltham, Mass.) scored goals for the Beavers, and sophomore Seamus Rooney (Bay Shore, N.Y.) and junior Bennett Smith (Lake Oswego, N.Y.) collected assists. Junior Will Reading (Southlake, Texas) won 9-of-20 face-offs and scooped up three ground balls, and senior Alex Fascilla (Huntington, N.Y.) and first-year Andrew Almquist (Wakefield, Mass.) combined to make 20 saves in goal in the setback.

Ettinghausen scored a game-high six goals and Regnery and Keough added four apiece for the Jumbos, while sophomore Will Emsing (Norwell, Mass.) chipped in with two goals and an assist. Senior George Panagopoulos (Old Brookville, N.Y.) caused three turnovers, junior Ben Clarke (Wellesley, Mass.) finished with two caused turnovers and four ground balls, and grad student Conner Garzone (Malverne, N.Y.) made six of the 10 saves for the three Tufts netminders in the victory.

Babson held the Jumbos at bay early on before Keough and Ettinghausen scored less than a minute apart for a 2-0 lead four minutes in. Wang put the Beavers on the board with 8:25 to go in the first period but Emsing answered two minutes later and Regnery notched his first of the game with 2:29 on the clock as the hosts took a 4-1 lead after one frame.

Tufts capitalized on a Babson penalty with a man-up goal by Regnery two minutes into the second stanza and Ettinghausen followed with his second of the game a minute and a half later. Keough and senior Michael Ayers (Hamilton, Mass.) tallied consecutive goals for the Jumbos as the lead swelled to 8-1 with nine minutes to go in the half. Rooney set up Bower for a Babson goal with 3:22 remaining but the hosts took an 11-2 lead into the intermission.

Regnery and Ettinghausen opened the third frame with goals in the first minute and Ettinghausen scored again four minutes later to make it 14-2. Clark scored his second goal of the season for Babson midway through the quarter but Tufts fired in three more before the end of the third before coasting home in the final stanza.

The Jumbos finished with a 67-31 margin in shots and 52-30 advantage in ground balls. Tufts doubled up the Beavers in face-offs by a 20-10 count.

Babson plays its final two regular season games against New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) opponents, beginning Saturday against Clark at 4 p.m. at MacDowell Field.
