East Men's Lax Falls To NW Guilford Because of Poor Start

East fell behind 7-0 after a dismal first quarter and could never really find it's groove in a 13-8 loss to Northwest Guilford during the state championship game. Ryan Lucey put East on the scoreboard early in the second quarter with his only goal of the game off of an assist from Chandler Zirkle, who finished with two assists. After falling behind 12-3, East scored five straight goals, including four goals by Steven Augustine and one by Ryan Dotson, to pull within four goals. Augustine also scored earlier off on an assist from Mark Trogdon and won 17 of 24 face-offs. Leo Moran also scored for East and Jackson Boyer recorded an assist. Congratulations to East on a fantastic season and especially to the seniors on their extremely successful careers at East.
