Tip will be a few minutes late here after senior day ceremonies. URI played the Jamaican national anthem to honor senior Jason Francis. I'm guessing its not a coincidence that Thorr Bjorn worked for UMass when the Gabon national anthem was played for Stephane Lasme.

UMass lacrosse leads 5-2 at halftime.

No. 4 Pitt just beat No. 1 UConn.

Same starting lineup as Wednesday.

FIRST HALF

15:47 6-6 - Chris Lowe has four of UMass' six points. UMass lax is up 6-3 after three.

13:10: UMass 16, URI 10 - Matt Glass just dunked on a baseline drive. I'm not kidding.

7:47: UMass 24, URI 22 - Matt Glass leads all scorers with 10 points. His previous high this year is 12. He has two, two-pointers. Before today he'd had six all season. UMass is undefeated (1-0) all time when Glass has more than one two in a game.

4:42: URI 32, UMass 28 - RHody is on a 10-2 run. UMass lacrosse beats Harvard 7-3.

0:00: UMass 41, URI 37 - Pretty typical game for the Minutemen with Matt Glass (13 points) and Gary Correia (9) accounting for over half of UMass' points.

SECOND HALF

15:54: UMass 47, URI 42 - Good start to the half.
