Indian Time - A Voice from the Eastern Door

The 2014 lacrosse season has opened with a bang for the Salmon River varsity boys' lacrosse squad. The long winter does not seem to not have affected the defending Section 10 regular season champions' lacrosse skills as they steadily pulled away from the OFA Blue Devils in the SR home opener on April 23rd.

The Shamrocks hit the field running and had taken a 15-2 lead by halftime.

Skkylar Thomas led the Shamrocks with five goals and four assists. Iothore Lazore tallied six goals and two helpers while Kason Tarbell finished with three goals and three assists. Skye Sunday (3 assists) and Kyle Lewis (1 assist) generated two goals each. Bryton Burns (1 assist), Alan Jacobs, Trenton Tarbell, Lakota Square and Dante David all chipped in single goals in the Shamrock win.

David Prudhomme, Austin Morley-Sloan, Nate Peo and Taylor Richardson contributed singletons in the OFA effort.

Tazz Oakes and Darius LaFrance shared goaltending duties and combined for four saves, two each, for Salmon River. Quinton Denner stopped 10 shots for the Blue Devils.
