Griffin McGinley was nearly unbreakable on Saturday.
The sophomore from Philadelphia made 21 saves and picked up four ground balls as Mount St. Mary’s upset Navy 11-9 in Annapolis. He made three saves in the final four minutes to preserve the season-opening win for The Mount. McGinley is the USA Lacrosse Magazine Division I Men’s Player of the Week for his performance.

McGinley made the first start of his career last February against Navy and made eight saves in an 8-5 loss. He made just two saves in his next start, an 11-5 loss to Towson.
In 2022, it looks like McGinley is ready to hit the ground running for a Mount team that suddenly has the lacrosse world’s attention.
