Bear Lacrosse 13 DeMatha 9

A game of 2 halves- first 24 minutes, the home team scored 10 times and gave up 5. The Stags won the remaining time by a 7 to 4 margin. The Bears shot poorly, made errant passes, and generally played badly. DeMatha conversely upped its game as its athletic reputation deserved.

The Landon Coaches went  deeply into their roster—putting 1 G, 6 Ds, 3 LSMs, 4 SSDMs and 10 Ms on the field.

One of the sports aphorisms says a true test is whether you can win when you haven’t played your best.
