Two year men’s lacrosse captain Bobby Atwell left the team last week for personal reasons according to UMBC athletic officials.

Atwell was a preseason third-team All-American despite missing all of the 2009 season with a torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament, and said he felt 100 percent on the field in an interview with Alexander Pyles of examiner.com

Atwell played in the team’s first eight games, stayed home for the team’s trip to Binghamton, and officially left the team mid-week after that.

Coach Don Zimmerman declined to comment on Atwell’s decision to leave the team.
