SALEM, Mass. - Salem State men's lacrosse student-athlete James Tatro (Byfield, Mass.) was named to the New England Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (NEILA) DIII Team of the week as announced by the conference on Monday.
Last week, Tatro and the Vikes earned wins against Husson (16-12) and Thomas (24-8), and a 7-6 league victory over Eastern Connecticut. In the undefeated week, the sophomore tallied 14 goals and one assist for 15 total points while also tying his career-high (six) in the win at Thomas. In the victory at Husson, he found the back of the net five times, and finally, versus Eastern Connecticut, he chipped in three goals. With his strong weekend, he grew the conference lead in goals (33) and goals per game (4.13). In the NCAA, his goals-per-game ranking puts him in the top 10 (seventh).
