Lehigh laxfest lacrosse tournament: Lehigh Laxfest – Information

Lehigh Laxfest Recap | Youth2

 (Youth2) – Two weekends ago in beautiful Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, over 100 youth lacrosse teams gathered at Lehigh University to compete in the 2012 Lehigh Laxfest hosted by Ath-Ed Sports.

 

5/6^th A

Prior to the 7/8^th grade A division championship, the same two organizations, Team 91 Orange and the Victor Blue Devils battled for the 5/6^th grade A division title.

 

In a low scoring 1^st half, the Victor Blue Devils held a 1-0 lead on a goal by Joey Colyer heading into the 2^nd half. Team 91 Orange began the 2^nd half with possession and a man up and cashed in immediately as they received a goal from attackman George Wichelns. They took their first lead of the game shortly after on a beautiful roll dodge and shot by attackman Robbie Varello. Team 91 Orange wasn’t done, as they tallied their third straight goal of the contest, this time as Sean Kuttin blew by his man on an iso play and ripped one past the Blue Devils goalie. After a Blue Devils goal by Chayse Ierlan pulled them to within one, Team 91 Orange answered as Alex Bamford fired one past the goalie after making a great move on the defenseman. Bamford’s goal would be the final one of the game as Team 91 Orange held on for the 4-2 win.

 

 

7/8^th A

Team 91 Orange out of Long Island, New York stole the show as they went an impressive 4-0 en route to capturing the title. They opened the day early in the morning with an impressive 8-2 win over Team Turnpike Exit 8. They followed it up with a dominating performance as they downed Recon 11-3 to advance to the semifinals where they would battle the Wet Bandits.

 

After Team 91 Orange got on the board first on a goal from Kyle Sliwak the Wet Bandits responded with the final two goals of the 1^st half, the first on a great play as Michael Mullen cashed in, and the second on a nice goal from Jared Walls. Mullen struck again early in the 2^nd half to put his team up two. Following a Team 91 Orange goal, the Wet Bandits struck again, this time off the stick of Kevin Lacon to give his team a 4-2 lead. Lacon’s goal would be the final goal for the Wet Bandits, as Team ‘91 Orange dominated the remainder of the game striking four straight times, including two from Riley Cox, one from Max O’Keefe and one from Jake Weinman to take home the come-from-behind 6-4 win to advance to the finals.

 

In the championship game Team ‘91 Orange would take on the Victor Blue Devils, who were coming off a 6-3 win over the Express Tenacious Turtles behind two goals apiece from Michael DeMarco and Tristan Ierlan.

 

Team 91 Orange got on the board first on a crazy play as Max O’Keefe threw the ball from the side of the cage off a Blue Devils defensemen into the net. They took a 2-0 lead quickly as Joey Zara struck right off the ensuing face-off. After Max Lambert got the Blue Devils on the board, O’Keefe and Ryan Tierney each netted goals for Team ’91 Orange before the half giving, them a 4-1 lead heading into halftime. Following an early goal by the Blue Devils’ Mason Parker, Team ‘91 Orange scored two straight times to give them a 6-2 lead. The Blue Devils would not give up, scoring three goals quickly, including two by DeMarco and one more from Parker to pull within one with little time remaining. They had one more opportunity to tie the game up, but could not find the back of the net as Team 91 Orange held on for the thrilling 6-5 win.
