First Round

As the days begin to heat up, so does the lacrosse action across the Hudson Valley.  We are now officially into the playoff season.

On Thursday, May 14th, we filmed three games in the first round of the Class "C" playoffs. First, we take you to Briarcliff where this #3 ranked hosted #14North Salem.  Unfortunately, North Salem seemed to have left their offense on the bus as Briarcliff easily dominated throughout the game.  Their sustained offense and stellar goal-tending had them leading at the half by a score of 5-1.  The second half of the game was not much different.  They added another four goals to the scoreboard and dealt North Salem a 9-2 loss. 

Next up we bring you #11 Lourdes vs. #6 Haldane.  Haldane was no match for Lourdes as they scored a whopping 24 goals.  Lourdes was determined to not go down without a fight but at the end of the day, they came up short, only putting 10 goals on the board.  The Blue Devils move on to the next round as they topple Lourdes with a 24-10 victory.

For our last game of the the day, #9 Westlake traveled to play #8 ranked Irvington.  This was an incredible game where neither team led by more than two goals at any given time.  Neither team was willing to give up and this game went into double overtime.  Unfortunately, when all was said and done, Irvington fell short and lost by one goal to Westlake.  In the next round of play, Westlake will meet Bronxville, the defending Class "C" champions.

Please stay tuned as two of our teams advance to quarter final action.  The Briarcliff Bears and Haldane Blue Devils will face off against one another on Saturday, May 16th.
