Men’s Elite

The Men’s Elite was as competitive as ever, with All Out edging LacrosseWear 16-15 in Double OT. All Out got two goals to LacrosseWear’s one in the two OT Periods (not sudden death), and both were scored by Billy Ward. Nick Ossello’s face off wins, and two point shots were a difference maker for All Out.

Women’s Elite

STX 13, Harrow Honeybadgers 3

Sparks flew in this championship game as soon as the first ball went into the air. Honeybadgers were not intimidated and combated the fast pace of Team STX. Although the score at half was 7-1 in favor of Team STX, Maggie Tamasitis, Tournament MVP from STX, had assisted four first half goals for her team. Molly Pais of Honeybadgers scored the first goal of the second half but Kitty Cullen responded with 2 goals of her own; one being a behind the back shot. Honeybadgers aggressiveness never dwindled as the game played came to an end.

Men’s Masters

Jagermeister/Force 5 13, Hulu 9

At the end of the first half Jager led 10-2 and looked to be cruising to a Masters title. Hulu wasn’t ready to give up though and mounted a comeback in the second half. Unfortunately for Hulu it was too little too late, as the gap was still four goals. Jager repeats as Vail Lacrosse Shootout Master’s division Champions.

VLS_706-3

I really do want to go out and play in Vail someday… but next Summer I’ll definitely be playing in Saratoga Springs, and that is immediately after Vail, so I’m really going to need to start training (RIGHT NOW!) if I want to be ready. Ballers all around!
