Friar Boys’ Lacrosse Dominate Nassau Powerhouse Syosset Braves


5.0 years ago @ 9:33AM

By Freshman Friar Jared Valluzzzi

On April 12th the St Anthony’s boys’ lacrosse team took on the Syosset Braves—a Nassau County powerhouse. The Friars impressed all around, beating the Syosset Braves 15-8.

The Friars were ranked 14th in the nation coming into the game and looked to add another win. In their last contest, St Anthony’s dominated Haverford, a team that was ranked 9th in the country by Inside Lacrosse.

The last time these two teams met back in 2016 the Friars only won 7-6, but this time it was much different.

The Friars got off to a quick start after the first whistle. Junior Jake Bonomi opened up the scoring and highly touted freshman Andrew Macadory got the next two tallies. Aidan Danzeza got the final goal of the quarter to give the Friars a 4-0 lead after 1.

Syosset would cut the lead to only 2 goals by halftime, down 4-2.

St Anthony’s turned a corner in the 3rd quarter, going on a 6-0 run to take a 10-2 lead. St Anthony’s controlled the game the rest of the way en route to their 15-8 win. Brennan O’Neil the top ranked sophomore in the nation had another good game for the Friars finishing with 4 points.

A key part to the Friars victory was a dominant performance at the face-off. Sophomore Jake Naso (committed to Boston University) and Senior Brendan Rizzuto (committed to Holy Cross) dominated the X for St Anthony’s.

The defense was outstanding. Hopkins bound senior Brady Kennally shut down Syosset superstar JP Lanning, holding him to one goal. Sophomore Goaltender Daniel Lepino was solid accounting for 7 saves on the day for the Friars.

The Friars have now added another win to their record and have been very impressive all season long.
