Sam James had two goals and an assist, and Mike Catarina had a goal and two assists. Alex Handanyan and Matt Manown had two assists each, and O'Donnell chipped in with an assist.
As strong as the offense played, it was the defense that led the way. All-state Goalie Matt Andrews had another splendid game with five saves. Dan Wise, John Manown and Bryan Lemos were nothing short of spectacular as they controlled the net in front of Andrews. Patrick Foster was a force all afternoon taking faceoffs, as he helped the Rams control possession throughout the game.
And congratulations to the dedicated seniors who played their last LSA lax game: Mike Catarina, Pat Foster, Brady O'Donnell, Damien Perotta, Steve Rocchio, Chris Rogers, Chris Ryan, and Dan Wise!
