the win over visiting Pittsford, 9-5.
The game was close for three quarters, with the Warriors taking a 4-2 lead
in the first and a smaller, 5-4 lead at the half. Schroeder led 6-5 at the
end of the third before adding three more in the last quarter.
Pittsford secured possession of the ball for five minutes at the start of the
game. Passing the ball around the perimeter, the Panthers were methodically
and patient, effectively keeping the ball away from Schroeder. The Panthers
scored the first goal at 7:15 when James Purpura scored the first of his three
goals with a hard underhand shot from the goalie's left front. Although the
Panthers controlled the ball after the next face off, the Warriors forced a
turnover and took the ball up field where after a loose ball pickup by Mike
Tota, Cody Consul received a crease feed while unattended and he scored at
5:52.
After the face off, senior middie Nick Mooney took the ball right to the goal
and scored with a hard side-arm shot to stick side middle. Schroeder scored
their third in a row in EMO when Joe Matison sent the ball from "X" to
Mooney who scored with an underhand "worm burner" at 3:01. Chris
Mason scored the last Schroeder goal of the quarter at 1:55 with a bounce shot
the ended up in the top of the net, just over Brendan Green's shoulder. After
the next face off Purpura fed Jimmy O`Neil, just off the crease to end the
quarter with Schroeder up 4-2.
After starting the second quarter in EMO, Pittsford scored (right after the
advantage) when David Quinzi sent the ball to Purpura who was low on the crease
taking the Panthers within one goal. Pittsford controlled the ball time for
much of the quarter as the Warriors saw a total of five slashes in the first
half. That, combined with Pittsford's slow-down offense kept the Panthers in
the game. Purpura scored the tying goal at 1:20 after a shot bounced of Scott
Tota's chest pad. He caught the ball right of the richoche and quick-sticked
the ball into the open net. The tie was short-lived, however as Mike Tota scored
an unassisted goal for Webster after picking up a loose crease ball, dodging
his defender and scoring one-one one with the Green. The half ended with Schroeder
up 5-4.
A thirty-second push call at the end of the second quarter gave Pittsford the
ball in EMO at the top of the third quarter but they were unable to score.
The ball moved back and forth from one end of the field to the other until,
at 4:12, Pittsford tied the game at five with a goal by Tom Schmitz with an
assist from Conor McDermott. Webster took the lead once more with Tota scoring
on a pass from Consul with 44 second left in the quarter which ended with Schroeder
up 6-5.
The defensive units on both teams were in high gear throughout the game. The
defensive play of Joe Dupra, Tyler Prichard and Justin McLiverty in the third
quarter were aggressive but patient and limited the Warriors from getting shots
that Green could not save. Green made some excellent saves at critical times
and kept the game close enough to expect the offense to do their part. Webster's
defensive unit of Shane Farrell, Eric Horeth and Michael Blood challenged the
Panthers at every opportunity and looked for every chance to double up on the
ball. Sometimes they created the turn over and sometimes Pittsford beat the
double, although they rarely found the open man after dodging those doubles.
Webster's defense was successful at holding Conor McDermott (20g-10a) to a
single assist in the game.
Schroeder extended their lead after the face off when Joe Matison drove to
the corner of the crease and stuck one into the corner of the net. Ball control
had switched from Pittsford to Webster, and the Warriors held on to the ball.
Although they had many feeds to crease cutters, they did not often result in
shots as the ball was knocked down or deflected. Webster often picked up the
resulting ground balls and Pittsford started to run out of gas. Webster scored
two more while keeping the Panthers scoreless in the fourth. Nick Mooney scored
the last two goals, the first with an assist from Consul to the high crease
and the second unassisted.
The final score of 9-5 did not reflect the closeness and intensity of the game.
Schroeder's five slash calls in the first half fed Pittsford's successful slow-down
offense and the Panthers had many good looks, some of which were missed opportunities,
but their patience on both offense and defense let them play even ball for
three quarters. Schroeder recovered from the penalties, none of which were
scored on, and chipped away until they were able (and ready) to take advantage
of Pittsford fourth quarter let up. The game was good lacrosse.
Scoring for Schroeder were Cody Consul (1g-2a), Nick Mooney (4g), Chris Mason
(1g), Mike Tota (2g-1a) and Joe Matison (1g-1a). Scott Tota had 8s/5ga for
Schroeder (5-4).
Scoring for Pittsford were James Purpura (3g-1a), Jimmy O`Neil (1g), Tom Schmitz
(1g), David Quinzi (1a) and Conor McDermott (1a). Brendan Green had 9s/9ga
for Pittsford (6-4).

Hilton defeated
Eastridge 15-6.
Scoring for Hilton were David Smith (7g), Colin Walker (4g), Matt Fracassi
(1g-2a), Jimmy Gaffney (1g-2a), Kyle Youngman (1g-1a), Troy Johnson (1g) and
Aaron Hayward (1a). In the cage, Brad Speer finished with 8s/6ga. No report
from Eastridge..
McQuaid 13 - Aquinas 9
McQuaid had two stretches of three goals, but other then that, the teams alternated
goals for nearly the entire game. The game was played back and forth, but the
Knights held on to win 13-9. 
McQuaid scored the first goal as Mitch Ritchie scored on a fast-break feed
from John Jenkins. Ritchie finished with 4g-2a. His goals were often pretty
and over the top, including two behind the back goals with one goal where he
spun around in a circle and finished with a behind the back goal into the upper
corner. Jassen Torres scored the first goal for the Little Irish on feed from
behind the cage from Austin Gorman. McQuaid then started the first three goal
run. Ritchie scored the first goal on a hard outside side-arm shot. With 3:32
left Jeff MacDonald scored on and EMO goal (assisted by Ritchie). MacDonald
led all scorers with 5 goals. Corey Flanigan scored the final goal in the series
for the Knights.
There was a significant number of penalties in the game. The Knights finished
with 14 penalties and Aquinas finished with 8. Aquinas scored on 4/12 and McQuaid
scored on 3/7.
The second quarter was scored one for one. As each team scored back and forth.
Neil Foley scored the first Aquinas goal on an unsettled situation followed
shortly there after with a Nick Caton goal during a Man Down Situation. There
were three man-down goals in the game with two for McQuaid and one for Aquinas.
Aquinas scored the next goal with an EMO goal by Marc Brondon, assisted by
Anthony Bianchi. The Knights goal was scored by Ritchie on the spinning behind
the back shot to the top shelf. On his way to the crease to execute the move,
he dodged four different Little Irish players. Aquinas scored the next goal
during another man-up opportunity as Cameron Corsaro scored off a feed from
Gorman with 0:23 remaining in the half. The final goal of the quarter was by
McQuaid during a face-off fast-break. Tim Caton fed the ball to MacDonald for
his second goal of the game. The score was 7-4 at halftime.
The teams continued to scored back and forth with only one slight exception.
Mike Gray, of Aquinas scored with a feed from Torres during yet another EMO.
Ritchie's fourth goal came off a broken clear and his second behind the back
goal as Pat Jenkins found him cutting on the crease. Aquinas scored the next
two goals to bring the game with one goal (8-7). Bianchi scored during man-down
(with an assist for Casey Vogl) and one minute later Gorman scored with a straight
dodge from the midfield line after a restart. The Little Irish were the closest
they would ever be. The Knights scored the next two goals to keep the pattern
of back and forth going. Nick Caton scored unassisted with an outside shot
to finished the quarter 9-7.
The first goal of the fourth quarter was also by McQuaid. Jeff MacDonald scored
his first of three goals in the fourth quarter with an EMO goal, assisted by
Eric Wright. Aquinas scored the next goal with Mike Gray (assisted by Gorman)
scoring on a feed from behind the cage on their fourth EMO goal. McQuaid scored
the second three goal streak at this point with JD Ayer scoring (assisted by
Caton) and two more MacDonald goals (the first assisted by Flanigan and the
second by Ritchie). Dylan Pinto added the last goal of the game for Aquinas
with a straight sweep from the top after a time-out for the Little Irish.
The Knights played a strong consistent game and used a couple of lapses by
the Little Irish to win. MacDonald and Ritchie combined on attack to overwhelm
the Little Irish defense. Casey Vogl and Mike Messina were strong at the face-off
for the Little Irish as Vogl finished 7/10 and Messina 7/11. Clint Masterson
for McQuaid was 7/13.
Penalties were a major issue for both teams. Although no Little Irish had double
penalties, McQuaid's Mitch Bailey, Tim Caton, Pat Jenkins and Mike Micca all
had more then one penalty.
In the cage, Dan Caufield had a strong game for the Knights as he finished
with 17s/9ga (65%). Kraig Heston finished at 50% (13s/13ga).

Sectional Rankings - Week 5
(May 4, 2008) - After some important match ups, we are finally starting to see some "shake out" in Class A.
CLASS A
We finally get to shake up Class A shakes up this week after a number of important
games: Penfield defeating Irondequoit, Schroeder defeating Fairport, and Pittsford
beating both Gates Chili and RH. Pittsford steps up as a strong competitor
with their first MC-1 win in a while and demonstrates that they are stronger
than MC-3 powerhouse Gates-Chili. Schroeder also demonstrated that they are
not to be taken lightly with their very big 13-4 win over Fairport.
Penfield’s
11-7 win over Irondequoit moves them into the second spot. We still feel that
Canandaigua is the team to beat, with Penfield and Irondequoit close behind.
The second time that the Patriots and Eagles face each other will be a game
to watch.
This week we move away from Honorable Mention and rank the top 8
teams in A. McQuaid stays strong at 7-4 even though they lost to Livonia.
CLASS B
Class B has one addition this week. In looking forward to the "Final
Four" and after the HFL v. Eastridge game this week, we are inserting
the Cougars into the fourth spot of Class B. Aquinas and Victor stay strong
in second and third. Even after a tough loss to defending State Champion, Jamesville-DeWitt,
the Panthers hold on to the number one spot.
CLASS C
Class C also remains the same. This week will see some key games for the Class
C rankings. On Tuesday, Bath and Livonia will face each other for the second
time this season, Bath will look for the first GRALL win and Livonia will look
for a more dominant win than their 7-5 win on April 8th. Waterloo faces Pal-Mac
for the second time and this time with their roster back to strength and hope
to reassert themselves with the victory.
GAMES THIS WEEK
Most of the big games this week are on Tuesday where we will see Penfield and
Fairport, Pittsford and Schroeder, Bath and Livonia and Geneva and Victor in
exciting match ups. On Thursday, Irondequoit and Schroeder play their round
two game.
