Two-time USILA All-American midfielder Kevin Massa leads Bryant with a .650 face-off percentage, the eighth highest mark nationally. Sophomore Tucker James and junior Shane Morrell pace the team with 31 and 30 points, respectively. James has scored a team-high 23 goals, while Morrell has dished out 13 assists. Two freshmen in Anthony Johnson and Charles South have caused 10 turnovers each, while junior goaltender Gunnar Waldt has made every start in the cage for the Bulldogs. Waldt, last season’s NEC Defensive Player of the Year, holds a 8.27 goals against average and is stopping 55.1 percent of the shots he faces. AGAINST THE BULLDOGS Robert Morris is 2-4 against Bryant in its history. The Bulldogs hold three straight wins in the series, with the Colonials’ last victory coming in 2012. In that contest, RMU clinched its first league regular-season championship with a 13-12 win.
