Keep up with the Week 6 action on the lohud Boys Lacrosse Scoreboard

When the calendar flips again this week, there will be 14 days left in the regular season for Section 1 teams. We're officially in the stretch run. There are way too many non-competitive league games yet to be played, so the contenders will have to compete smartly and stay focused. The playoffs will be here soon.

Results

Monday

Ridgefield, Conn. 11, Iona Prep 10

Iona Prep had a chance to pick up the first marquee win of the season, but a humbling start overshadowed a furious comeback.

Changes were made on the fly.

The Gaels were down five at the intermission, but evened the score before falling 11-10 in overtime at Ridgefield, Conn.

“Coming back like that is a sign that we’re good enough to play against any team, but it’s also showing that we’re not playing with the right intensity in the parts of the game where we’re struggling,” said Iona Prep attackman Tim Plunkett, who forced OT with 30 seconds to play. “It’s both good and bad.”

Kyle Colsey rolled off a defender and netted the winner on the second Tigers possessions of the overtime.

“We can hang with anybody if we play well,” Gaels FOGO Christian Tapia said. “When you start like that, it’s hard. We have a big game coming up later this week against Chaminade, so hopefully we can get it rolling.”

Ridgefield was up 8-3 at the break.

Steven Kidder capped a three-goal run to open the second half, but Ridgefield eventually got the momentum and went ahead 10-6 with 7:11 to go in regulation on a Colsey goal.

Billy Haggerty and Plunkett took over from there and punctuated an impressive closing run, netting two goals apiece.

“We were trying to run a different defense in the first half that clearly didn’t work, so we went back to basics and just played our regular game,” Iona Prep coach Rick Trizano said. “The season is winding down and I was hoping to get one of these big wins, but we still have a few left.”

What it means

The Gaels have a quick turnaround and play St. Joseph’s Regional on Tuesday before closing out the regular season with three quality opponents – Chaminade, Cheshire, Conn. and Shenendehowa. If this group can get a little healthier and play a little smarter, Iona Prep could go 3-1 to finish out. If the Gaels aren’t ready to play, they could go 2-2 and head into the postseason without momentum.
