Seventh-ranked Lourdes jumped out to a four-goal halftime lead on Saturday at Wildcat Stadium, on the way to defeating Aquinas 10-7 to snap a two-game losing skid.
 
"The boys are really starting to come together," head coach Patrick Yannarelli said afterwards.  "They played a as team and gave full effort the entire game.  We are excited about how we are playing going into the final stretch of the season."
 
Jared Yoshino (Toledo, Ohio/Southview H.S.) put Lourdes on top three minutes into the game and D.J. Harris (Miamisburg, Ohio/Miamisburg H.S.) doubled the advantage just over two minutes later, but the Saints answered with a pair of goals to knot the game at two.
 
Two more goals by Yoshino before the end of the quarter put Lourdes in front 4-2.  After Aquinas scored the first goal of the third, Lourdes tallied four straight, including a pair from Tanner Jaramillo (Sylvania, Ohio/Northview H.S.) on the way to an 8-4 halftime lead.
 
Aquinas (7-4, 2-3 WHAC) scored the first two goals of the third, but a tally by Dalton Vowles (Toledo, Ohio/Saint John's H.S.) stopped the Saints' run and each team found the back of the cage just once in the final 15 minutes.
 
Yoshino and Harris both finished with three goals while Vowles and Jaramillo had two each for the Gray Wolves.  Lourdes outshot Aquinas 44-24, but had just a 25-20 edge on goal.
 
Conner Mishler (Lambertville, Mich./Saint John's H.S.) made 13 saves in the cage for Lourdes while Casey Hilfinger (Whitehouse, Ohio/Anthony Wayne H.S.) collected ground balls.  Yoshino and Nic Mueller (Temperance, Mich./Bedford H.S.) both had five ground balls in the win as Lourdes finished with a 32-25 advantage in that category.
 
Lourdes (7-2, 3-2) will travel to Beverly Hills, Mich. on Wednesday evening to face Michigan-Dearborn. The opening faceoff is set for 8 p.m. at Detroit Country Day School.
