MONTREAL -- Mack O'Brien of Peterborough, Ont., scored six times as the Trent University Excalibur slayed the Redmen 12-7 in men's lacrosse at Molson Stadium, Saturday.

"Our offence never got into gear, while the Excalibur capitalized on numerous errors," said McGill head coach Tim Murdoch. "Trent came in here highly-motivated to finish first we did not respond to their challenge. We were flat."

Trent led 3-1 after one quarter, 6-2 at the half and 11-4 after three quarters. Three goals by the home side in the final stanza was too little, too late.

Seven different players scored for McGill, including Luke LaCava, Jake Safarik, Scott Bailey, Will Edwards, Jishan Sharples, Ryan Besse and Greg Henry.

Guy Fox took the loss petween the pipes for McGill. Kavin Thomas registered the victory for Trent.

Other marksmen for the Excalibur were Josh Wasson (2), Chad Evans, Tyler Warren, Jesse Way and Joe Stanley.

The victory clinched first place in the six-team CUFLA East Division. Trent has a 7-2 record and will close out their regular season at Bishop's (6-2) on Sunday. McGill has completed their season at 7-3 and will either finish second or third, depending upon what the Gaiters do in their final two games. The Redmen will either host Bishop's or travel to Peterborough to play Trent over Halloween weekend in quarterfinal action.
