Final 4 Updates!
What a night for Florida lacrosse! On the girls’ side, Barron Collier defeated St. Thomas 12-9, Vero Beach topped Benjamin 13-3 (those scores are getting tighter ever year as the quality across the state improves), Ponte Vedra was victorious over Oak Hall 20-12 and the Oviedo Olympia game was postponed due to a touch of rain and the chance of a little wind. The game is set today sometime around 5:00. Check with the schools for the exact time.
In the boys’ brackets, Lake Highland Prep was able to get its game in after a considerable delay, easily winning 20-3 against one of the teams of the future, a very young Dr. Phillips. Benjamin won a fast and well played contest against Boca Raton 9-7, Ponte Vedra came from behind to defeat a stubborn Maclay 12-8, and in the game of the night, St. Thomas Aquinas eked out a thriller 9-8 in overtime against Barron Collier. These two schools split back to back games at Barron Collier last evening.
