ROCHESTER, NY - The Nazareth men's lacrosse team delivered the first-ever national title for the school on May 24, 1992 when the Golden Flyers downed Roanoke 22-11 at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, PA.

With the score in favor of Nazareth 14-11 in the fourth quarter, the Golden Flyers locked down and scored the final eight goals of the game over the final 11:32 to cruise to the victory.

Ronnie Davis paced the attack with six goals and three assists, while Cam Bomberry delivered four goals and one assist. Jeremy Hollenbeck contributed three goals, while Marty Kelly notched two goals and three assists. 

The attendance for the game was 6,741, a NCAA Division III record at the time.

Nazareth's (14-1) lone loss of the season came against Hobart 13-12 during the regular season, however, the Golden Flyers returned the favor in the NCAA semifinals, dropping the Statesman by an identical score in overtime on a Marty Kelly goal. The Statesmen had an unprecedented reign on Division III lacrosse, winning 12-straight NCAA Championships before being knocked off by Nazareth in 1992.
