Matthew Robideau scored his seventh, eighth, nine, 10th and 11th goals of the season as men's lacrosse scored a season-high for its first win of the spring in its 15-9 trouncing of Robert Morris Saturday at Campus Field.

Robideau's five goals were a career-high; he also picked up two assists in Sacred Heart's Colonial Athletic Association season opener.

Pioneer attacker Kiel Adams and midfielder Kevin Walker added three and two goals, respectively, while attacker Bobby Karl contributed with one goal and four assists.

Senior Jim Millhausen picked up his first career win, steering aside 11 of 17 shots on goal in 55 minutes for Sacred Heart.

Robideau and Walker alternated goals toward the end of the first half, expanding the Pioneer lead from 5-3 to 9-3.

Midfielder Brendan McAuley assisted on Robideau's goal with 1:58 remaining in the first quarter; Karl assisted on Walker's goal at 11:43 of the second; attacker James Hinkson picked up the helper on Robideau's 5:56 tally; Walker capped it off, unassisted, at 2:18.

Robert Morris cut the lead to 9-6 with 12:54 left in the third quarter, but it failed to narrow the margin further.

Midfielder Joe Cavagnaro snared a team-high five ground balls while winning 11 of 22 face-offs.
