On Monday, April 29 the Islanders went head to head against the La Jolla Vikings on their Senior Night. This game was far from close as the Islanders took an early lead and continued to increase it, with a final score of 18-3.
This was a great night for the seniors, earning a huge win and celebrating their last season as Islander lacrosse players. The seniors on the field were Luca Salata, Ryder Smith, Charlie Laing, and Lance McKenzie.
As the score shows, the Islanders had an excellent night offensively, scoring 18 goals. Jared Capin had five of those goals, weaving through the defense and sniping the back of the net. He was a vital piece in the offense this game. Luca Salata scored three goals, constantly moving forward and putting pressure on the defense.
On the flip side, the ball rarely made its way into the Islander territory, but when it was there, defensive player Leo Salata was stopping it; checking players all night long and doing an amazing job in transition to get the ball back into Viking territory.
Along with the Salatas, Charlie Laing was on his A-game, as per usual, blocking shot after shot. Additionally, he cleared the ball very well and pushed the ball out quickly. That allowed the Islanders to catch the Vikings off guard and attack quickly.
There was no chance for the Vikings to make a comeback and the Islanders swept their competition with a final score of 18-3.
