Air Force (15-10 overall, 1-0 WCC) fell to #19 Brown, 14-11, in day two action Saturday at the Julian Fraser Memorial Tournament, played at the Sullivan Aquatic Center on the campus of Santa Clara University in Santa Clara, Calif.
Brown jumped significantly ahead early, taking a 6-2 lead after the first quarter. The Falcons went on to out-score the Bears the rest of the way at 9-8, but the four-goal lead was too big an obstacle to overcome.
Freshman Tom Leggett led the Falcons with six goals. Leggett now has 102 points on the season, which is the most-ever by a Falcon freshman and the first rookie to hit the 100-point mark at Air Force.
Fellow freshman Jack Richards added two goals. Senior Ian Christie had a goal and assist, as did freshman Jonah Vander Veen. Junior Liam Markus had nine saves in goal.
Air Force returns to action tomorrow morning at 9:20 am, taking on Bucknell. The game will be played at SRAC Pool on the San Jose State campus in San Jose, Calif.
