The Six Nations Chiefs (7-1-1) visited the Brooklin Lacrosse Club (3-4-1) in Saturday night Major Series Lacrosse action.
The goalie match-up was Warren Hill in net for the Chiefs against Nick Damude in net for Brooklin.
Both teams lineups were depleted, and had to carry a lot of rookies in this game. Six Nations looked to run away with the game, but Brooklin put up a strong fight all the way to the last second. The Chiefs were able to hold on for the 9-8 victory.
To The Game:
The Brooklin squad started the night out energetic, and were rewarded with the night’s first goal. Dyson Williams fired a shot at Hill, which hit him, bounced up then off his back into the net at 2:32.
Six Nations stormed back with four goals. Jordan Durston converted a Brendan Bomberry pass at 6:53, followed by Dalton Sulver scoring off a Brooker Muir pass at 10:02. Cody Jamieson blasted a shot on the power play at 13:14, followed by Charlie Scanlon converting an Ike Squire pass at 14:50.
Brooklin gave a final push before the period was over. Luke Pilcher scored off a Shawn Westley pass at 16:17, followed by Ryan Lanchbury just 0:16 seconds later. Austin Staats got one more for the Chiefs before the period was over unassisted at 19:29.
After one period, Six Nations 5 Brooklin 3.
Second Period:
