Armstrong Shamrocks still unbeaten after win over Vernon Tigers
The Armstrong Shamrocks continued their winning ways Friday night with a 14-2 victory over the Vernon Tigers at Nor-Val Arena.
The Shamrocks are now 5-0 in the Thompson Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League.
Despite the efforts of seasoned Tiger veteran goaltender and third game star Brodie MacDonald to act as the last line of defense against the constant onslaught of waves of Shamrocks pressure in the offensive end, it simply wasn’t enough as the Shamrocks’ dominant defense in front of steady Conner Senn aided the Rocks as they cruised to a relatively easy victory over the improved Tigers squad.
The first period opened with a forced turnover by the Shamrocks in their own defensive end. The loose ball was gobbled up by speedy defensive specialist Conor Webb who streaked down the lefty side of the floor and buried a low bounce shot on MacDonald.
