PRINCETON, N.J. -- In week one of men's lacrosse action for the Ivy League, Michael Long has been named the Offensive Player of the Week for his three-goal, four-assist performance this week. His seven points led all of Cornell, and marked his most points in a game since April 30, 2022 when he tallied eight against Princeton in the regular season finale.

Long got the Big Red rolling just 46 seconds into the game, scoring in open space in the lane off a feed from CJ Kirst. In the first quarter alone, Long had four points on two goals and two assists. The game marked Long's healthy return to action following a 2023 season that the senior missed most of. The Mendham, N.J. native's three goals extend his game-scoring streak to 18, the eighth-longest in all of Division I.

Long and the rest of the Big Red are back in action this week when the team travels to #7/#5 Denver. Faceoff against the Pioneers is set for 12 p.m. mountain time, or 2 p.m. for those on the east coast. The game will be broadcast on DenverPioneers.com/watch.
