Exeter 11  St John's Prep 2
Mon, 5/5, Exeter - Exeter picked up where they left off on Saturday at Tabor by playing very consistent and solid lacrosse in their defeat of St John's Prep by the score of 11-2. Offensive star and game ball winner Ryan Ambs (3 goals, 1 assist) started the scoring with a nice cut and feed from Tom Petty in the first quarter. Ryan added another unassisted goal at the end of the quarter to go along with a Petty solo score and a Ryan Beer goal on an assist from linemate Chris Mottau. Exeter extended their 4-1 first quarter lead to a 7-2 halftime lead on the strength of solid play at both ends of the field. St Johns Prep was concentrating on doubling Mike Hines, their star attackman from last year, and Mike moved the ball well to his open teammates for scoring opportunities. Sloan Smith scored 3 goals on the day, Tom Petty finished with 1 goal, 2 assists, Chris Mottau was 1 and 1, and Mike himself scored one and assisted another. After jumping out to an 8-3 lead early in the 3rd quarter, liberal substitution ensued, and the reserve players continued the high level of play. The defense of Wiley Dornseif, Will Tuttle, and Stewart Stout continues to dominate, and John Reed also had a great day both at long pole middie and close defense. Julian Rodier was solid in the net for the first half, and backup Eric Hassett pitched a shutout in the 2nd half. Ryan Ambs was not only the offensive star of the day, but he was great on faceoffs, groundballs, and played tough defense. Exeter performed as well as the coaches could possibly expect for a Monday game, so all were happy.
