Metro made their way up to Grand Junction, CO. only to fall three points short of victory over Fort Lewis College. However, the Metro Men surely had the Skyhawks of Fort Lewis on their toes the entire game. Fort Lewis was only able to pull away with three points late in the fourth quarter. When compared to the regular season game where Metro gave up a ten point loss to Fort Lewis, it is clear that the Skyhawks were not expecting the team that showed up to play during play-off. We are all proud of our Metro Men and only good things can come from what we learned about ourself this season. This play-off game was not only the last game of the season, but also the last college game for seniors Tyler Spaw and Cody Niehus. These two exceptionally remarkable players contributed so much to the team on defense and offense. Cody and Tyler will surely be missed by all of the new incoming Metro Men. They will always be an important factor in our METROHOOD. To all my Metro Men who will be around next season, East division two is ours for the taking, hands down. 

METROHOOD!!!

The Metro State men have fought their way into the divisional playoff. May third marks the beginning of the playoffs and the end of the season for many teams. Metro State dropped to third in the division loosing to both MSU and UNC. However, with those two important loses looming overhead the Metro men will not be hanging up their playoff towel soon. First round we face Fort Lewis College, whom we lost to in regular season. The difference between then and now is that the Metro men know what kind of team they want to be and what statement they want to make. Good luck Metro men, put the hood on 'em. METROHOOD!!!

Driving 8 Hours to Nebraska is a sure disadvantage to any team. Going from a sunny, clear weather state to a very rainy, wet weather state, really ruins a good lacrosse stick. Unfortunately, not playing a hard game of lacrosse is the worst enemy of a traveling team. The METRO MEN's trip to Nebraska went unsuccessful in all aspects. The rain, the state of destination, the horrible opponent, were all a part of a bad trip gone worse. NEXT YEAR THEY CAN TRAVEL HERE.

There were two games CSU-P and REGIS UNIVERSITY, and one winner, METRO STATE. That is correct, the weekend equaled the fifth straight loss for REGIS against METRO and also the second straight loss for CSU-P against METRO. METRO came out fighting both games, from the first second of play. Mytamba Smith, Hayden Perry, and Jesse Griego controlled the face-off X all day long. Together and individually these three exceptional FOS's averaged 90% against REGIS and the big 100% against CSU-P. That is a great way to fight, gentlemen. Besides completely dominating possession time in both games, METRO managed to score more than 35 points accumulatively. As the season develops it is clear that METRO is turning into the championship team that they have hidden deep inside them. Watch out RMLC METRO STATE is here for victory and we are not leaving the premises without it. METRO HOOD!!!

Two games in two days: a srcimmage against MCLA D1 Utah University and a game against MCLA D2 Utah Valley University, leaves a sour taste for the men of Metro. The weekend did not end with a single victory, and nothing good to speak about on the drive back to Colorado. Luckily the Metro men got these good teams early in the season, a good wake-up call was made to the Roadrunners. The wake-up call, however, did not cursh the Metro spirit, only made it hungry for success in this season. Practice intensity increased 3 times, drive increased 8 times, and aggrassion gained a heaping jump in the forward direction. Metro plans to see Utah Valley University in the playoffs this year, they will be playing a whole new Roadrunner team. The Metro Hood cannot be stopped, and only contained temporarly.
