Mike Robinson ends NCAA lacrosse career on a high note
Peterborough’s Mike Robinson will end his NCAA lacrosse career as the all-time leading goal scorer at a university which boasts alumni like John Grant Jr. and Curtis Dickson.
Robinson’s 185 goals eclipses the University of Delaware Blue Hens record of 180 set last year by his former teammate, Ty Kurtz. When Kurtz set his mark in April 2023 it eclipsed the record of 162 Dickson held for 13 years. Dickson, who stars for the National Lacrosse League’s San Diego Seals, played two seasons for the Peterborough Century 21 Lakers.
Robinson set the mark with his third straight four-goal game on April 26 in Delaware’s 11-10 loss to Towson in their final regular season game.
Robinson added to the mark, scoring a hat trick, including the overtime winner, in the Colonial Athletic Association semifinal, a 13-12 win over Fairfield at Johnny Unitas Stadium in Towson, Md., on May 2.
He scored his final goal in a 15-6 loss to Towson in the conference final on Saturday.
