Gates Chili 17 - Eastridge 5

special report redspot Gates Chili scored 13 straight goals spanning three quarters to defeat Eastridge 17-5. gc-eastrThe Lancers, for various reasons, only fielded 13 players for the competition and became tired as the game preceded. The Lancers played up to the Spartans for the first half, however, in the second half Gates Chili stepped it up and came away with the big win.
  
The Spartan's Jeff Fichtner scored the first goal of the competition with a bounce shot from a straight drive to the cage. Gates Chili scored many of their goals on straight drives and the Lancers seemed unable to stop their progress. Fichtner finished the game with 5 goals on 5 shots on cage (9 total shots) and added two assists. Eastridge's Brandon Moynihan scored the first Eastridge goal to tie the game at 1-1. Moynihan finished with three of the five Lancer goals. Gates Chili scored the next two goals, both with straight undefended drives as Brad Weber and Fichtner both found the back of the cage.
  
Eastridge scored the next three goals to both take the lead and end the quarter. Adam Sisson scored the first goal. Sisson finished the game with 7 ground balls and was 9/19 at the face-off. The next goal was scored by Moynihan although his involvement started much earlier. After an out of bounds Spartan ball near midfield, Moynihan ran over to attempt a ride and turned back the Spartan resulting in a take. On the ensuing possession he scored with an inside feed from Matt Driffill. The last Lancer goal of the half was also scored by Moynihan on an outside shot. The first quarter ended with Eastridge leading 4-3.
