Acton-Boxborough Head Coach Ejected in Lacrosse Loss to the Ghosts

Acton-Boxboro may have thought they had it in the bag today, the Grey Ghosts showed gave them a game ...

Acton-Boxborough/ games are always hotly contested, but things got a little too hot under the collar in Westford on Thursday as the Grey Ghosts defeated the Colonials 17-10 in a contest that had 19 penalties between the two teams.

Westford gave up a technical foul from a push in the second quarter and two sportsmanship fouls in the third quarter.

However, their infractions were overshadowed by two unnecessary roughness calls and an unsportsmanslike penalty by Acton-Boxborough in the first half and two more unsportsmanshlike calls, culminating in a technical foul in the fourth that removed Acton-Boxborough head coach Pat Amendolia from the contest.
