After a few weeks away, the boys’ varsity lacrosse team shook off the rust and squared off against DCD in a competitive match-up on Thursday afternoon. Playing without team captain and leading scorer, Liam Brodeur, the boys’ team entered their game with a challenge to create more offensive chances. Andrew Green answered the bell and kicked things off with a win on the opening face-off that he took directly to the cage for the first goal of the game and the team never looked back. Green paced the Belmont Day offense with 4 goals and 2 assists, getting help from Oliver Gottesman, Quinn McCaffrey, and Ezra Wolfson who all chipped in with timely scores. The defense was equally as impressive, with team captain Ellis Anderson limiting DCD to a pair of goals and cementing a second-half shutout for a 7-2 win. In an afternoon full of standout performances, none was better perhaps, than the play of second-year goalie William Li. Li was dynamic in net, recording 13 saves on 15 shots, and frustrated the DCD attack all day. Boys’ lacrosse now sits at 2-1 after the win.

  • The JV ultimate squad was rained out this week, but Hugue Marsan, Wyatt Baker, Christian Atem, and Jordan Levine had a great week of practice, continuing to improve their skills.
