2013 All-American Selected by Coaches
May 22, 2013 -
The Head Coaches of Section Five met on Sunday afternoon to listen to the presentations of twenty-three players who had been nominated for All-America team honors. The awards, sponsored by US Lacrosse, identify some of the best players from each area of the country.
In previous years, the national awards were selected by various leagues. This year, for the third year, the Head Coaches of thirty-seven teams came together to pick the players to receive the various awards.
The Academic All-American award is the highest honor given to a player who is both a great lacrosse player and an excellent student. US Lacrosse allows one award for each ten teams in the area and so there were three awards for Section Five this year. An Academic All-American must, first be selected as All American and then, where warranted, can be nominated as the result of their academic accomplishments. Eight players were nominated for the award this year.
The All-American award is given to great lacrosse players from the area. US Lacrosse allows one award for each five teams in the area, so with thirty-seven teams in Section Five, there were seven awards available this year. Twenty-seven players were nominated, but after the first team league lists were determined twenty-three players were considered. USLacrosse requires that players who are in leagues must make first team league honors in order to be considered.
New last year, USLacrosse added an award named for the long-time Johns Hopkins lacrosse coach and Athletic Director, Bob Scott. The annual award is given to a senior of outstanding character, good academic standing and one who demonstrates good sportsmanship and safe play. Read about the award and Coach Scott at the USLacrosse site. The winner from Section Five, this year, was Brockport goalie, Julian King.

Two evenly matched teams came to Mynderse Academy stadium to face off in an out bracket game for the Class C tournament. The Indians forced overtime with the final goal of the fourth quarter and then won the game 5-4 with an unassisted goal from A
aron Peterman with 2:10 remaining in the first overtime period.
The game was a story of three momentum changes. The first began with Mynderse controlling the first quarter. The Blue Devils won the first two face offs on technical wins and had the first shots at the cage. They converted on two of their first five shots. The opening goal of the contest was scored on a drive from behind by Peterson. He came three yards off the crease and put the ball high past Waterloo goalie Mark Campbell. Campbell finished with 13 saves for the Indians (62%). Two and a half minutes later the Blue Devils scored again. Their goal came from an interception during a clear with Ben Cafolla intercepting the pass and taking the ball all the way to the goal. Mynderse led 2-0 after the first quarter. In the first quarter, Mynderse defenseman Brody Bently stepped up with two one-on-one takes and helped control the Waterloo offense. Bently at LSM and Mike Millis at close defense were key components to the Mynderse victory.
Mynderse added their third goal just over a minute into the second quarter. The play began with Francis Leddy coming from behind the cage. He drove in and made an impressive pinpoint pass through the defenseman to Mike Barbay for the goal. Approximately halfway through the quarter the Indians started to make strides and change the momentum to their favor. The Blue Devils only took two more shots in the rest of the quarter and only two additional shots in the fourth quarter. Mynderse did not score again for twenty-four minutes and were held to just those four shots in that time. To compare, the Indians took nine shots in the second quarter and another eleven in the third quarter. Although of the twenty shots spanning the second and third quarters only ten were on cage (including their four goals). With 2:21 remaining in the first half, Tim Wright started on a dead ball behind the cage. He drove towards the cage and, after a slide, found Tim Brown open on the crease for the first Indian goal of the night. 1:05 later Wright set up the same move, only this time he drove from the left sideline. The Blue Devils led 3-2 going into halftime.
In the third quarter, the Indians kept up their pressure and their dominance of the game. With 5:36 remaining in the third quarter, Wright stepped up behind the cage. He ran at the goal and found Mike Wright open on the crease for the tying goal. Four minutes later Waterloo took their first and only lead of the game. Wright assisted his fourth goal straight with a feed to Brown. This time he fed from the outside to the crease without a dodge first. Waterloo led 4-3 going into the final quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Mynderse kept their shot count down only adding four shots (two on cage). They scored the tying goal with 10:24 remaining in the game when Millis picked off a pass on the clearing attempted and took the ball in for the goal. Waterloo attempted to take the lead back. They took twelve shots in the final quarter. Wright, a senior, held his team high and fought back to keep the Indians in the game. He had the last shot of the game for Waterloo, but Mynderse goalie Time Trickler came up with a save to send the game to overtime. Trickler finished with 14 saves and an impressive 78% day between the pipes.
In the overtime period, Mynderse won the face off and had the first chance at the ball. They could not get a shot off before Waterloo took the ball back on bad pass. Defenseman Nicholas Stenberg picked up the loose ball and cleared the ball up the field. Stenberg led his team in ground balls with six. The Indians could not control the ball and it was immediately taken back by Ruairi Orlando. Barbay picked up the loose ball and brought it back over the midfield line when Mynderse called a timeout at 2:17 remaining. Peterman started with the ball after the overtime and after dodging past two defenseman, bounced the ball into the top corner of the cage past Campbell to secure the Blue Devils victory.
Mynderse moves on to play at Aquinas in Wednesday's quarter final round.

May 20, 2013 - Local lacrosse official Pete McCabe will appear on a segment on the HBO program, Real Sports on Tuesday night. Some of the material taped for the show was taken at the Gates at Spencerport game on May 11th.
Pete is a great advocate for sportsmanship and may get a chance to talk about it although the program will most probably focus on the viscous attack Pete suffered when officiated a local semi-pro football game a few years ago.

One of the most anticipated games of the season pitted Fairport and Pittsford in an end of the year game for the league championship. Given the expected crowds, the game was moved from Pittsford Mendon to St. John Fisher College. The game was, as expected, an exciting one, which was won in overtime by Fairport. 
Fairport scored the first two goals of the game with the same two players. Jay Vakiener threw the ball to Dan McAvoy to give the Red Raiders a 2-0 lead. Pittsford came back on a fast break clear with a goal from Albie DiPasquale by way of Andrew Rodenhouse, but Fairport closed the scoring in the first quarter with an unassisted goal by McAvoy (4g). The Red Raiders led 3-1 at the end of the first quarter.
The two teams traded the first two goals in the second quarter and then Pittsford scored the last three. Ben Overslaugh scored an unassisted goal for Pittsford on a drive to the crease and Cameron Gebhardt scored an unassisted goal for Fairport after picking up a loose ball on the cease. Pittsford scored at 6:54 with Stephen Quinzi driving from the right. Brandon Barker assisted Overslaugh on the next goal on a pop out. Billy Cooper scored an unassisted goal at 1:58 with an inside dodge to the crease. Fairport led at the half, 5-4.
The momentum shifted back to Fairport in the third, with the Red Raiders adding five goal to their side while holding Pittsford to two. The Panthers scored first to tie the game at 6-6 with a DiPasquale drive from the right crease at 9:21. The Red Raiders scored the next three goals in a period of just over two minutes. Kevin Vaughn struck with a hard sidearm shot from the top center. Jack Sanna fed Kacin Welch on the crease and Vakiener fed Gebhardt on a cross-crease pass. DiPasquale broke the Fairport streak with an unassisted goal for the Panthers, but Fairport came back less than a minute later with Vaughn feeding McAvoy with a quick pass to the far side of the goal. Vakiener assisted the final goal of the quarter when he threw the ball to Justin Kesselring with just over three minutes left in the third quarter.
Fairport was ahead by two goals at the top of the last quarter, but junior midfielder Brandon Barker scored two unassisted goal (one at 10:38 and the other at 1:49) to tie the game at 9-9. Despite efforts by both teams, the last minute and a half was played without a tie-breaker.
Pittsford won the face off at the top of the first overtime period. After a timeout and a couple of tussles for ground balls, Fairport took possession and called their own timeout. Fairport put a shot on the cage but as it bounced off the goalie the loose ball was picked up by CT Bove and pooped into the goal for the thrilling finish to an excellent game.
-- Game NOTE: Stephen Ricci helped the Panthers win 14 of 17 face offs.

Although the game was close going into the second half, Thomas outscored Canandaigua 9-2 in the second half on their way to a 13-6 victory over the Braves. Thomas scored seven unanswered goals including five in less than three minutes in the third quarter. During the highly anticipated game, Thomas seemed the stronger team; even during the close periods in the first quarter.
Thomas was aggressive on both sides of the field. On defense, they were pressuring the shooters, forcing the Braves to take rushed shots or limited their shot all together. On offense they were patient until they found a weakness and then exploited it for a goal. The Braves, as strong competitors, stayed in the game for a half, but the Titans kept the pressure up for the whole game and it was too much, this night, for Canandaigua.
The game opened with Canandaigua winning the first face-off on a technical foul. They brought the ball down and tried at the cage. The Titans did not allow them to get a shot off before forcing a bad pass and recovering the ball. During the clear, attackman Eric Munn intercepted the ball and forced a one-on-one with the Titan goalie, John Bezek. He scored his unassisted goal just 0:43 into the contest. Thomas won the next face-off and took the ball down to set up their offense. They moved the ball around until there was an opening on the right side and Kevin Hill scored the first of his 3g for Thomas. Their next shot, which took 1:16 to set up was also a goal. This time the opening came on the left side with Nick Schuman capitalizing. The third Thomas goal was scored with Pat LeMoine running straight at the net from the top of the restraining line and scoring. Thomas led 3-1 with 7:01 remaining. Canandaigua scored the next goal on a fast break. Brian Feldman scored with an assist from Connor Hulme with 4:06 left in the first quarter. Canandaigua tied the game after receiving the ball at midfield after an offsides call by Thomas. Mitchell Schaefer took the ball straight from the midfield line and put it in the back of the net. Thomas didn't want to take a tie into the second quarter and scored again with 0:03 remaining. John Hill recorded his first assist of the game with a pass to LeMoine. Hill finished with 1g-4a of the Titans.
In the second quarter, the pace of the game slowed down and Thomas had trouble hitting the cage. Thomas finished the quarter 0/7 for shots on cage. The Braves scored the only goal of the quarter on an outside shot from Schaefer. The game was tied at halftime, 4-4.
Canandaigua scored the first goal of the second half during a man-up play. Ben Northrup set up a cross-crease pass to Hulme to give the Braves their second lead of the game. The Titans then took control. The Titans tied the game with 8:40 remaining with a feed from behind the cage by J. Hill to Kevin Hill. They kept up the pressure and scored on a fast break goal with J. Hill feeding Jake Giudice. With 2:47 remaining the Titans scored the first of their five goals in less than three minutes. The Titans scored again at 2:03, 0:34, 0:09 and 0:03 to take an 11-5 lead into the final quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Thomas added two and Canandaigua added one. Near the end of the contest, both teams gave their subs playing time. The Braves rotated in all three of their goalies and Thomas subbed in their second goalie. For Thomas, Bezek finished with 7 saves (54%) and Alex Gulisano did not face a shot. For Canandaigua, Michael Cuciti finished with 8 saves. Luke MacNeil finished with 1 save and 1 goal against in two minutes. Jon Gelinas did not face a shot in the final minute of play.
Midfielder Justin Bird finished 74% at the face off draw and with a team leading 13 ground balls. Of the 13 ground balls, 11 were off face-offs. Attackman J. Hill finished with seven ground balls for the Titans. For the Braves, Midfielders Connor Moore and Schaefer finished with four ground balls each.

Penfield, who beat Pittsford last week moved up, but Fairport is still very much at the top. It is interesting that Pittsford, Penfield and Thomas have votes that are all pretty much the same.
In Class B, Victor Made some movement, replacing Churchville in third place. Like in the Class A group, there is a big difference between the first place team (CA) and the rest.
The only change in Class C is Pal-Mac taking over the sixth spot from HF-L.
