Boys Youth Lacrosse Opening Day

U11 Team 1 (aka Abominable Snowmen)

The Boys U11 Team 1 started the season on a very high note and were excited to finally get into some game action! On a beautiful, sunny day at Milliken field the team battled hard during a very evenly matched contest with Kingston in the first half. Goalie Tyler Mulhern and his defensive counterparts Brendan Cooper, Joseph Wellmann, Henry Snyder, Thomas Guinee and Sully Mulhern did a great job of thwarting a quick Kingston attack and turned away several fast breaks. Speedy middies Will Greer, Danny Durkin, Jackson Roberts, Cal Osten, David Burke, Chris Longo, Bryan Thomas, Cole Speer and Jake Allen were flying all over the field scooping ground balls and making great passes. Attackers Mason Fitzgerald, Charlie Pyne, Nick Slamp and Thomas Marsden made life tough on the Kingston D and goalie all day long. Team 1 managed to pull away in the second half and finished a great first game with an 11-6 win.

U11 Team 3

Cohasset U11 Team 3 had an outstanding debut – beating Hanson 10-3 on a sunny afternoon. With only seven seasoned players, there was some trepidation regarding how the boys would handle their first action. This was quickly put to rest as Team 3 came out hustling and scrapping all day. Scoring was led by Will Thomas who had a hat trick including two coast-to-coast forays from the defensive end of the field. Otherwise, the scoring was very evenly distributed with single scores from Tommy Carrabes and Jay Frederick as well as career first goals from Kyle McFetridge, Cliff Ward, Hank Waters, Henry Thomas, & Jackson Fitzgerald. The goal was ably manned by Jack Mahoney, James Krumsiek, & Ryan Donovan. Stanch performances on defense were given by Trevor Glavin, Declan Havlicek, Patrick Hagearty, & Amby Tierney. On attack, Luke Donovan, Terrence Faherty, and Henry Thomas debuted with some stellar passing and movement. The middies carried the ball well with Max Farber and Sam Albino in particular showing some nice speed. Overall, it was an impressive first effort.
