From The Baltimore Sun
Jon Mazza made quite a splash in his debut as a
starting attackman, scoring six goals in No. 12 Towson’s 13-5 victory over
Mount St. Mary’s on Saturday. The sophomore is the first to acknowledge,
however, that he has been peppering senior teammates Joe
Seider and Ryan
Drenner for
advice after spending last year as a member of the second midfield.
“Those
guys are one of the best duos in college lacrosse,” Mazza said. “On the field,
I’ve always looked up to them and tried to match their games and kind of be
like them in a way. Playing with them is awesome. They have amazing chemistry
because they’re best friends off the field. So playing with them is just
awesome.”
Seider,
a Sparks resident and Hereford graduate, said he doesn’t mind the questions
because he and Drenner (Westminster) did the same to Thomas
DeNapoli when
he was the senior.
“It’s
kind of a circle,” said Seider. “I remember when Drenner and I walked in, and
we would just talk to older teammates like DeNapoli. We were just trying to get
a feel for the team. For Jon to go from midfield to attack, it’s a different
position, and he’s got a lot to learn, but he’s also doing so much so well. So
he’s really in the right spot, and I think it’s a cool process trying to teach
up the young guys. It’s cool to see how much they grow and how well they do.”
