The Athens Drive Jaguars varsity lacrosse mens team traveled to Greenville, NC to take on the J.H. Rose Rampants on Friday, March 8. The Jags went rampant on the field -- winning 17-3. While "rampant" can refer to how an animal stands, it also means to "spread unchecked," which is exactly what the Jags did.
High scorers were: Zander Adkins (4 goals, 1 assist); Jay Cohn (4 goals, 6 assists); Jack Danjczek (3 goals, 1 assist); Caleb Deak (3 goals, 1 assist); and Tyler Fields (3 goals, 2 assists).
Face-off veteran, Liam Craig, had another good night, going 15 of 18 at the dot. Brower Evenhouse also left his own imprint, going 4 of 4 in relief.
On defense, Wes Cohn led the way with 5 takeaways and 10 ground balls, with Owen Honnold hot on his heels with 6 ground balls and 3 takeaways. Webb Linton also joined the defensive party with 6 ground balls and 2 takeaways.
Tomorrow night, the Jags take on the Apex Highschool Cougars. In case you didn't know, "Jaguars are larger, heavier, more powerful and have a stronger bite force than a Cougar" (thanks Google!). So let's bring it on their home field, boys!
