Senior Garth Stidolph lead his team to victory with four goals against Marietta on Saturday. He chipped in two more goals on Wednesday against Ohio Wesleyan, in his last regular season home game. Stidolph started out with the men's lacrosse team as their trainer, and then joined the team in his sophomore year. Hard work over the last three seasons has made him one of the Yeomen's best players.
