MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Chris Berchock finished the day with a hat trick, but the Berry College men's lacrosse team fell to Rhodes College 12-7 on Friday afternoon.

The Lynx jumped out to a quick start and led 7-3 by halftime. Berry then scored four goals in the final 30 minutes of play, but the deficit was too great, as the Vikings fell 12-7.
