Now, after the first two games of the season down in Greenwood, South Carolina, we can all see why.
Ingalls, a sophomore with the NCAA Division II squad in only its second year of existence, has a pair of goals and has emerged as a solid contributor for the Great Lakes Valley Conference team.
Lander opened the season back on Feb. 6 against Chowan University and took an 11-3 victory, with Ingalls scoring his team’s third goal of the game with 8:44 remaining in the first quarter. An offensive midfielder, Ingalls finished the game with a pair of shots, both on goal, as well as a caused turnover.
The Bearcats had nearly a month off before their next contest, but the result was the same, albeit far closer: an 11-10 victory over North Greenville University. Ingalls scored Lander’s first goal of the fourth quarter only 34 seconds into the final frame, giving his crew a 9-5 lead at the time. Ingalls would cap the game with three shots, two on goal, to go along with two ground balls and another caused turnover.
The Lander schedule picks up in earnest in March with six games, including their first away game on Monday, Mar. 1 at Barton College.
