Canandaigua Lacrosse Ranked 6th In NY State After Defeating Fairport
#7 Dven Alves Drives The Goal Against Fairport
Although Fairport had the first face off and took almost two minutes off the clock in their offensive set, Canandaigua scored first, on their first trip to the offensive side of the field, when Deven Alves scored an unassisted goal on a drive from the side.
About a minute later, the Braves scored again when Brian Scheetz popped a short adjacent pass to Marshall Johnson on the short right wing.
Both goalies, Nick King (CA) and Kris Sterzin (Fpt) had numerous “big saves” in the game. Their “stand up, tall in the cage” approach to a number of one-on-ones had the fans for both teams cheering their accomplishments. King ended the game with 15 saves and so did Sterzin. read the rest of the story here….
