Landon Lacrosse 16 Saint Stephen’s Saint Agnes

Travels to this Alexandria campus are, more often than not, a test. The 2024 Saints have a lineup that includes 5 recruits, but an early season set of losses did not put the Saints on a good path. The pre-game Senior Celebration did not presage good play.

Within 7 minutes of the contest, the Bears has seized a multigoal lead while the visitors shut out their hosts:

First 12:00 ZACH ABRAMSON—saw 2 shots, saved the 1 SOG; at X HAYDEN GOOZH 3/1 and 2 GBs; TALAN SMITH 3/1 and 2 GBs.

END OF 1^ST Q BEARS 7 SAINTS 0
