One day after a tough 13-6 loss to nationally ranked Bullis March 24, the Cape boys’ lacrosse team used crisp passing, tough defending, sharp shooting and a running clock to sink Sussex Central 22-0 on Cape’s Champions Stadium turf field.
The Vikings hung with the Bullis Bulldogs in three of four quarters. A six-goal second stanza from Bullis sealed the Vikings’ fate, as they could not regain the momentum they had in the first.
“Bullis was a good test for us,” said Cape coach Geoff Shupard. “We were able to take quite a few positives away from the game. The mistakes we made were costly against a team like that, but they are fixable, and I know the boys are willing to put in the work to get it right. When you are working with a shot clock, it puts a premium on smart, fast offense and quick, clean substitutions. Except for a few giveaways, we did a pretty good job of it, and we were able to work on it even more Tuesday against Central. We still have work to do.”
Cape junior Brenner Short scored three goals, while Burke Healy, Tanner Wyshock and Alan Grapski added one goal each. Grant Conway and Short each had one assist.
Junior goalie Mason Trench stopped 15 shots.
“We knew Bullis was a tough team, and we started off strong,” said Wyshock. “It showed us the intensity level we need to play with to be an elite team. The Central win was whole team effort, and defense stepped up for the shutout.”
The next day, the Vikings powered to a one-sided victory over the Knights.
Healy, Wyshock and Carter Nemcic each had a hat trick. Conway and Short tallied two apiece. Ryan Morgan, Evan Burris, Braddock Smith, David Adili-Khams, Kyle Green, Ronan Presler, Grapski, Channing Smith and Marshall Keys each scored once.
Trench and Patrick Little had one and three saves, respectively.
“It’s always fun to see the young and inexperienced guys get in the games and play,” said Shupard. “Central always has good athletes who are aggressive and play hard.”
The Vikings travel to Polytech Friday, March 28 to face the Panthers.
