Two members of the Virginia men’s lacrosse program helped the United States win gold at the 2022 World Lacrosse Men’s U21 Championship. Midfielder Danny Parker and defenseman Quentin Matsui, both rising in their fourth year at UVA, helped the U.S. defeat Canada 12-10 Saturday in Limerick, Ireland to capture the U.S.’s ninth consecutive lacrosse title.
The U.S. led the gold medal game wire-to-wire, but it was nonetheless another exciting matchup between the U.S. and Canada for lacrosse supremacy. Canada scored with just over two minutes left in the game to pull within one, but Duke’s Jake Naso won the ensuing faceoff and Notre Dame’s Pat Kavanagh tied the game with an empty netter.
Thomas McConvey, an incoming transfer to the UVA men’s lacrosse program from Vermont, won a silver medal playing for Canada. McConvey scored one goal in the championship game.
At the last Junior World Lacrosse Men’s Championship, which took place in 2016, the United States trailed Canada 8-2 at halftime in the gold medal game. The U.S. came from behind to win on a last-second goal by UVA’s Ryan Conrad, who won the national championship in Virginia.
Danny Parker and Quentin Matsui now join Ryan Conrad and a host of other UVA alumni who have won world-class lacrosse titles.
