Freshman attackman Cole Bailey exploded for seven points on four goals and three assists on Wednesday, leading Tufts to a 15-7 trouncing of Bowdoin.

As Tufts prepares for tomorrow’s rematch with Amherst, they are mindful that, while Amherst has underperformed as of late, it remains one of the NESCAC’s most potent offenses. What’s more, the Lord Jeffs — who recently fell out of the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association rankings after dropping six of their last eight — smell blood in the water here in Medford, where they were embarrassed by the Jumbos 15-5 on April 14.  

“Amherst is a team we knew we might see again,” McCormick said. “We’re excited. We’ll build off of our success from the first meeting and come out with the same intensity Saturday.”
