Queens, N.Y. (4/13/13)  The New York Institute of Technology, currently ranked 8th in the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Coaches poll, topped the Dominican College men's lacrosse team, 21-5, this afternoon in a game played at DaSilva Memorial Field on the campus of St. John's University.  The game was part of "Jack Kaley Day," while St. John's University will host Villanova later this afternoon.
