Exeter 6  North Yarmouth  2
Wed, 4/16 Exeter, NH - Exeter's defense dominated the day as Exeter came away with a 6-2 victory. The margin of victory does not reflect Exeter's dominance in time of possession and shots on goal, but stellar play by Peter Lowell, the young NYA goalie, kept the game close in score. Exeter's defense of Wiley Dornseif, Will Tuttle, Stew Stout, Tom Rubel, Jon Reed, and goalie Julian Rodier all had outstanding games. NYA shot opportunities were few and far between after they went ahead 1-0 midway through the 1st quarter. Exeter finally converted one of their many shots on goal when Tom Petty scored on an assist from Wiley Dornseif, and 1-1 is how the 1st quarter ended. Mike Hines, the offensive star of the day and game ball winner scored the only goal of the 2nd quarter, to give Exeter a slim 2-1 halftime lead. Exeter dominated possession in the 2nd half, but continued to have trouble putting the ball past the inspired NYA goalie. Mike Hines scored two 3rd quarter goals and Michael Scalise scored on a nice feed from Petty to give Exeter a 5-1 lead after three quarters. When Hines scored his fourth goal of the game midway through the 4th quarter, a 6-1 lead looked insurmountable. The team is clearly improving in many facets of the game as the weather cooperates and more full fieldwork takes place. It is often the case that the offense takes longer to come up to full speed, so this should be a great week for continuing improvement. Click here to see game pics
