Windham Varsity Lacrosse vs. Dover 5/4/21

Well, well, well…it looks like we have a winning streak. Three games in a row to bring the record to 3-5. Certainly a happier team than the one that was 0-5. I had thought coming in that Dover would be a solid match for Windham as they too had been beat up by Winnacunnet and were a Division I team while Windham is a DII effort. This was not quite the test predicted though with Windham coming away with an 11-5 win. Again the ability to win faceoffs paid dividends over and over again in this game as did the recent addition of Chris Billone to the team. I’d also love to see Dan Charest be allowed to play more offense than simply running the ball across the midfield and then running off. His speed is a killer. Defense could still use a good deal of work as there is too much stickwork and not enough bodywork, positioning, and cutting of angles. But…I’ll take it for now as they begin a stretch of games that are well within their wheelhouse to win.
