Joey Spallina is No. 1.
The Team 91 2022 Smash alum by way of Mount Sinai etched his name in the Syracuse history books Saturday. Spallina found fellow ’22 Smash Michael Leo (St. Anthony’s) with a behind-the-back pass to set up Leo’s behind-the-back goal for his 308th career point in the Orange’s 14-7 rout of Colgate. That 308th point gave him sole possession of the all-time scoring record at Syracuse. That’s no small feat at any school. Doing it at arguably the greatest college lacrosse program is next-level.
Spallina finished the day with two goals and five assists, complete with two ground balls and a caused turnover. One of those assists came to his younger brother, ’23 Bandits SSDM Jake Spallina (Mount Sinai), who cashed in on his first goal of the season. Leo put forth a four-goal, one-assist, one-ground ball day, while ’23 Bandits Tyler McCarthy (Connetquot) picked up a ground ball for the Orange.
