The Algonquin boys lacrosse team lived up to expectations on Saturday, but it didn’t come easily. The top-seed boys captured the Central Division 2 championship with an overtime win over St. John’s at Foley Stadium in Worcester. The final score was 10-9. You can read more about the game here in TheDailyNorthborough.com and here in the Metrowest Daily News.
The boys now head to the state semi-finals on Tuesday where they’ll face Longmeadow. The game starts at 7:00 pm at Foley Stadium.
The Algonquin girls lacrosse team also played in the division finals on Saturday, but they lost a hard-fought match to rival Westborough by a score of 12-8. You can read more about the game here in TheDailyNorthborough.com and here in the Metrowest Daily News.
Also this weekend, the Assabet girls softball team competed in the Central Division 3 championship. Unfortunately, the top-seed Aztecs were upset by 11th-seed Quaboag by a score of 9-1.
