Boys Varsity Lax Takes the Reins in 14-0 Win Over Broncos

On a very windy, cold, and drizzly evening, the fellas saddled up and rode out to Coopersville for another Tier 3 matchup. The game was in the Eagle's talons from early on as they were up 4 zip at the end of the 1st, and 10 to Nil at the Half. The game presented a great opportunity for some younger Eagle players to see the field as a varsity player, with several JV players suited up for the game.

John VanAntwerp in the net and Ben Toly at the Face-Off X were perfect on the night, with John handing the Broncs a shut out, and Ben winning all his draws before taking a seat and giving the face-off duties to freshman Evan Bolt who performed well. The defense created havoc for the Steeds and never let them get a settled possession, creating countless turnovers and forcing them to hail Mary outlet passes for their clears.

There was only 1 penalty on the evening for the Birds which makes for much faster and more competitive play. Obviously a big night for the points tallies, with Logan Eaton, Henry Mast, Blake Grieve and Elijah VanderKodde each with a goal, Freshman Adrian Selfe and Adam VanderHart each with a goal and an assist for 2 points. Brock Grieve netted 2 goals and 2 assists for 4 points, and his fellow Attackman Luke Afman rang up 2 goals and 4 assists. Once again the top point-getter on the night was Senior Jake Eaton who banged home 4 goals while taking on the role of Feeder-in-Chief as he racked up 6 assists for 10 points total.
