WAUKESHA, Wis. - Sophomore attackman Airik Ranjo (San Diego, Calif.) contributed an individual season-high four goals, fielded five groundballs and caused a turnover but it wasn't enough as the Carroll University men's lacrosse team lost to University of  Dubuque 18-8 in a cold, blustery College Conference of Illinois-Wisconsin game at Schneider Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Junior defender Ian McClintock (Reno, Nevada) followed with two goals for Carroll, which was outshot 57-36 - including a 34-18 shot-on-goal margin.
Senior attackman Paul Kerchberger (Deer Park, Ill.) and sophomore attackman Cordell McNamara (Waukesha, Wis.) each added a goal.
Kerchberger, junior attackman Jeff Schultz (Franklin, Wis.) and junior midfielder Christopher Bechtel (Sammamish, Wash.) each had an assist for Carroll.
