The Colonials used four different goalies throughout the game as they faced a ton of offensive pressure. Attacker Bobby Griebe and midfielders Adam Hagelin and Nick Williams each scored three times to lead Towson in scoring.
The win pushes the Tigers record to 5-2 and their next game is on the road against University of Maryland Baltimore County at UMBC stadium Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.

Despite losing the game on the scoreboard, UMBC was better than Albany in shots (42-33) and groundballs (33-30) but scoring only one goal in the first half hurt the Retriever’s chances later in the game. UMBC’s next game is on April 3 at 7:30 p.m. against Towson at UMBC Stadium.
