Spring-Ford Closes Out Owen J. Roberts in Boys Lacrosse 15-12

When the game was suspended due to thunderstorms last Friday night, the drama was as heavy as the rain coming down as the Wildcats had stormed back from a 12-5 deficit to pull within 3 at 14-11 when the game was halted.  They may have been more drama as to when the game would resume compared to how uneventful the final 4:11 turned out to be last night as Spring-Ford completed their win over Owen J. Roberts in PAC-10 Boys Lacrosse action.

When play resumed, Spring-Ford started with possession, clinging to a 14-11 lead. The Rams patiently ran around the perimeter eating up valuable time before burying a shot with just over 2 minutes left to make the score 15-11.  

Owen J. Roberts had some chances but were unable to get any quality shots on cage until getting a fast break goal with just 17 seconds left to close out the scoring sending the final score to 15-12

The Rams offensively were led by Paul Major who had 4 goals and 5 assists and Troy Szostek with 4 goals and 3 assists.  Other goal scorers included Casey Pettine with 3 goals, DJ Young with 2 goals and 1 assist, Kevin Honaman and Zach Hare 1 goal each.  The defense led by Ian Hare, Kyle Hoffner, and Liam Hare harrassed the Wildcats offense all game and Matt Messerle had a stellar game in goal with 16 saves, including a point black stop while 4 men down in the 3rd quarter.

OJR was led by a 5 point night by Chris Antich (2g, 3A), 2 goal effort by Ryan Kent, and 1 goal each by Will Snelling, Nick Tordone, Sam Garges Austin Delgatto, and Zach DeCarlo.  Christian Wood added 11 saves in goal.

Spring-Ford is at Methacton today at 3:45 while Owen J. Roberts host the Vikings of Perkiomen Valley at 7 PM.
