All Quiet On the Nor'Eastern Front

Holbrook, NY--Lax action was light last week in men's masters play. Thursday night saw only one game being played and the other one forfeited. Friday night's two games were cancelled due to weather conditions.

SCPD defeated Bruno's by a score 7-5 in what was a very boring game. SCPD had the ball for most of the game. While Bruno's goaltender Vick kept his team in the game by making a ton of saves. There was nothing else note-worthy or exciting to report. SCPD improves to 4-3 for the season and closes in on a possible spot in the post season. Bruno's remains win-less at 0-5.

In other scheduled games Checkmate forfeited against each other for Thursday's second match-up. But we are not certain if Checkmate Black or Checkmate Orange will be credited with a victory.

Flanagans vs. Grey Dogs and Land Sharks Blue Vs. Land Sharks Red will be rescheduled at dates and times to be determined.

SCPD Blew; Sharks Dump Suffolk's Finest

SCPD looked more like the Keystone Cops during their loss to a mediocre Land Sharks Blue team.

Holbrook, NY--With help from players from their two other sister teams, Land Sharks Blue soundly defeated a struggling SCPD team 8-5 in Nor'Easter lax play at the PAL Athletic Complex last Friday Night. Land Sharks Blue took the lead early during the game and never looked back. SCPD's offense struggled the entire evening against a stiff Ed Coleman led defensive unit. Not taking away from Land Sharks Blue's effort but Team SCPD was without their two top producers on offense thus managing only a handful of possessions that night.

Land Sharks' offense kicked it into high gear thanks in part to Paco's (Dowling '92) two goal performance and the teams' whopping 44 shots on goal during the game. "It was ridiculous, it was a barrage!", SCPD goaltender Keith Huber (St.John's '89) exclaimed referring to the Land Sharks' offensive onslaught. "I was shelled pretty good..in fact I haven't been shelled like this since I played with the Rhinos" he chuckled.

Land Sharks Blue improve to 2-1 on the season, while SCPD falls to 3-3.

Next up for LSB is a match-up against Land Sharks Red Friday 8/28 @ 9pm. SCPD takes on the league's favorite punching bag Bruno's Thursday 8/27 @ 9pm.
