Varsity Boys’ Lacrosse

Thursday, April 3, 2008

In their Season and Home Opener, The Horsemen got a taste of their potential this season. In a very hard-fought and thrilling battle, the Horsemen fell just short of a late come back as the North Salem Tigers won in overtime 5 - 4.

Strong play by some of the Horsemen veterans like, Connor Tompkins, John Bonanno, Steve Amaro, Dan Pineda (1 goal) and Kevin Blank (1 assist) was complimented by new starters such as John Bucci (2 goals/1 assist), Zack Siska (1 goal), Spencer White (1 assist) and Ryan Tompkins.

Dan Pineda scored the fourth Sleepy Hollow goal to tie up the game with 2:05 remaining. After surviving a penalty and a consequent “man-down” situation, North Salem scored the first and only goal in the Sudden Victory Overtime Period.

The valiant effort by the Horsemen in the opener leaves fans to believe in this promising 2008 season. Our next game is on Tuesday, April 8th at Edgemont.
