March 15, 2011 / Lacrosse Playground /

Johns Hopkins used an efficient offense in the first half and a dominating face-off effort in the second half to defeat UMBC, 16-5, in the Konica-Minolta Face-Off Classic played before 17,057 fans at M&T Bank Stadium. The Blue Jays improved to 5-1 on the campaign, while the Retrievers dropped their third consecutive game to fall to 1-3.

Hopkins players are wearing Nike Vapor Elite gloves as well as 2011 Assault gloves from STX. STX does a nice job of incorporating Hopkins third color, Black, into the colorway.

UMBC is wearing Warrior TII helmets and Brine King IIIs. Click a picture below to begin slide show.
