Once again, Algonquin Lacrosse teams are in sync. The third seed teams outplayed 6th seed competitors in the Quarter Finals. Now, they both have to overcome second seed rivals on competitors’ turf to make it to the Finals.
The Boys beat Tantasqua 16-10. Tomorrow night they’ll play Westfield. [Note: Game delayed by rain to Wednesday.] The Girls bested Agawam 19-7 to play Minnechaug on Wednesday.
Fourth seed Softball won their Quarter Finals 2-0 against lower seed Tantasqua. On Wednesday, they’ll go up against top seed Wachusett in the Semi-Finals. Undefeated Wachusett has dominated the league this season. But Algonquin has been their stiffest competition, losing twice by only one point.
ARHS Tennis is disappointed to be out of the running in their district tournaments.
The Girls trounced South Hadley in their Quarter Final, 5-0 on Friday. They were knocked out in the next day’s Semi-Finals by second seed Shrewsbury, 4-1.
St. John’s entered the Boys Tennis tournament bottom ranked, at 12th seed. But they weren’t intimidated by 4th seed ARHS. Algonquin lost the Quarter Final 3-2.
Baseball’s Quarter Final is still on for tonight, with the winner to play in Semi-Finals on Wednesday.
