Tuesday

Somers 10, Lakeland/Panas 5

People are watching.

And for those who haven’t checked in on Somers yet, these guys are legitimate contenders in Class B this season. The Tuskers put the brakes on a patient Lakeland/Panas rally on Tuesday and got away in a hurry, posting a 10-5 win.

They do like to play fast, but realize the situation often dictates pace.

“I think in the beginning of this game we did a really good job of that, balancing pace of play and possession,” first-year head coach Jordan Hirsch said.

The Rebels held the ball for long stretches but were in a 5-0 hole before they broke through. It got interesting once Kyle Gallagher capped a four-goal run for Lakeland/Panas with 2:48 to go in the third and made it a one-possession game.

Miguel Iglesias answered before the quarter ended and Mason Kelly made it a 7-4 advantage early in the fourth. Lakeland/Panas got a last-gasp score from Michael Ahlstedt, but the Tuskers responded with three unanswered goals to close out the win.

“We come to practice each day wanting to work and you can feel the energy in the games,” Somers goalie Landon Pepe said. “We’re pushing transition. We’re playing fast. That’s the big difference.”

What it means

Somers and Yorktown have to meet with a Section 1 Class B title on the line. It would be a classic matchup. It would be good for the game. A lot of lacrosse fans would pay to see these rivals go head-to-head again in a win-or-go-home meeting with the bleachers on both sides of Murphy Field overflowing.

Player of the game

It’s going to be hard to send these guys home if Matt Mayfield keeps winning faceoffs.

Rye 11, John Jay 9

There needs to be a sequel.

John Jay found a little more time and space than most against the highly-touted Rye defense, but the Garnets came up with just enough timely stops to post an 11-9 win Tuesday in the logical preview of the Section 1 Class C title game.

Time will tell.

Justin Shapiro knotted the score 9-9 with 5:29 to go, but the Wolves didn't have much to celebrate the rest of the way. Carson Miller broke the deadlock a minute later and Tucker Hess fed Henry Shoemaker for an insurance goal with 2:44 to play.

"I think it's really important to make a statement now," Hess said. "We came into the season thinking we were going to be a powerhouse and then had a bit of a slow start. The defense held us together while the offense worked on putting the ball in the cage. Tonight, even though it was a close game, I think we really showed what our offense can do and how dangerous we really are."

What it means

If this continues, Rye is going to have a high degree of confidence on the offensive end before the month is over. There were a number of important goals scored in this game by newcomers.

"Obviously we had a really nice offense by the end of last year, but we lost a bunch of those guys and it feels like an entirely new offense," Hess said. "It feels like everyone is developing really, really fast. It's great looking around and seeing guys I know can put one in the net when we need them to."

Player of the game

Hess remains a creative facilitator, but he isn't shy about driving to the cage with purpose and finishing with power.
