close defense along with sophomore Bill Conners and<br />

top players for the Blue Devils ... Turri and Rotanz<br />
combined for 40 points in 2010, while Tripucka and<br />
Lawson were major parts of the defensive midfield ...<br />
Freshman Jordan Wolf also could see time on the top<br />
midfield line as he enters collegiate lacrosse as a major<br />
scoring threat ... Terrence Molinari returns for his<br />
final season to anchor the defensive midfield and to<br />
help with faceoff duties ... Sophomore Greg DeLuca<br />
also will bolster the midfield line and faceoff midfield<br />
along with senior Brandon Allen.<br />
Leading the Attack<br />
<strong>Duke</strong>’s top returning scorer from 2010 is senior<br />
Zach Howell will headline the Blue Devil attack ...<br />
Sophomore Josh Offit joins the attack after a solid<br />
rookie campaign with eight goals and 10 points overall<br />
in 11 games ... Redshirt senior transfer Jesse Fehr looks<br />
to add to the scoring power after transferring from<br />
Harvard ... Seniors Sam Spillane, Stephen Coyle, and<br />
freshman Josh Dionne will add depth to the attack.<br />

Redshirt senior Terrence Molinari is pursuing a<br />
master’s degree from the Nicholas School of the<br />
Environment ... Molinari is playing his final year of<br />

injury.<br />
