GTLAX JV Game Report - May 27 vs Batavia

The Greece Athena/Odyssey Thunder JV Lacrosse team went out on a high note, handing Batavia a 12-7 decision, in their final game of the season at home on Thursday 27-May. Leading the charge offensively for Thunder were Pat Crowe (3g-7a) with an impressive 10 point game, fellow attack Joe Angello (4g-1a) with 5 points and Anthony Crawford with a pair of goals. Also scoring for Thunder were Cam Ernstberger, Tyler Heaton, and Brian Torcia with one each. Ken Mohrman, Nick D'Ambrosia, Adrian Sanchez, Ryan Walsh, and Tyler Schindler all played well on the back end limiting the Blue Devils chances and keeping their team on the attack with some nice transitions. Mohrman was solid in the nets for three quarters allowing only 4 against before turning the baton over to Mike Zimmer for the final frame. Kenny had the fans going wild when he rushed one to the mid-field line but he left them wanting more as he dished it off to a teammate and hurried back to his crease. Adrian Sanchez made a nice end-end rush before coughing it up as well. Joe "Snake" Vyverberg played a rather physical game and at one point crushed not only the ball carrier but a couple of other innocent bystanders in the scrum, prompting a visit from the Batavia trainer, while everyone took a knee. On the other side of the spectrum we saw Chris Merkel head off to the box for roughing up a Blue Devil twice his size. As the saying goes, "It's not the size of the dog, but the size of the fight in the dog that counts", or something like that. Have a nice summer!
