Tartan Boys Lacrosse Handles Foothill in 11-9 Upset Win
St. Margaret's knocked off a higher-ranked Knights squad Saturday.
St. Margaret's boys lacrosse program picked up a convincing 11-9 home win against long-time rival Foothill High School Saturday afternoon on Tartan Field.
The No. 12 Tartans and No. 6 Knights continued a legacy of exciting contests in a non-league battle Saturday with underdog St. Margaret's trailing 0-1 until Aston Frankfort (3g, 1a) tied it at 4:20 in the first. St. Margaret's pressed the attack, rattling off 3 unanswered goals in just over 2 minutes. The Knights fought back, knotting it a 3-3 to end the first quarter.
The Tartans opened the second quarter on the front foot, increasing their lead to 7-3 until Foothill finally found the net at 4:17 left in the half. A gritty back-and-forth struggle ensued, with St. Margaret's taking a healthy 8-5 lead into halftime.
The second half was much of the same for the Tartans as they held Foothill scoreless to head into the final frame leading 10-5. Foothill wasn't done yet, staging a late rally in the fourth, closing to within 2 goals with an 11-9 Tartan lead with 3:40 left to play in the game. A few needless penalties charged to the Knights and a clutch save by Tartan goaltender George Knapp (16 saves) kept St. Margaret's on top through the final whistle.
Andrew Toubin led the Tartans with 5 points on 3 goals and 2 assists while Ben Greek (2g), Cob Sprague (1g, 1a) and Ryan Kees (1g) supported. Defenseman Reece Ballard contributed a long-pole goal in the win.
The 11-4 Tartans will next take on league opponent Woodbridge at home on Wednesday, April 16, in a bid to close out an undefeated league slate.
