   Trojan Win Streak Reaches Four

by posted 05/12/2008

       Weston extended its current winning streak to four games and its record to nine and five with a 12 to 5 victory over Pomperaug in Southbury Thursday night.  After a brief shaky start the Trojan defense led by goalie Josh Briskman and poles Robbie Glascott, Sam Crowell, Kip McMahon, and Doug Curtis  locked down and held Pomperaug to just 2 goals in the last 3 quarters to seal the win.  The tough Trojan D held Pomperaug to almost 4 goals less than their season average.
        As always the Weston offense was keyed by the their all-state co-captain Jeff Ledwick who scored four goals.  Senior Nick Figliola who has been on fire during this winning streak added 2 more.  Peter Smith opened the scoring and Morgan Faller,  Sean Ledwick,  Adam Block, Brian Rogers, and Devin Weintraub each added a goal in a very balanced attack.  Block contributed three outstanding assists as well, always unselfishly finding the open man.  
        Weston again dominated possession as  co-captain Dylan Hannum won 80% of his draws  at X ably assisted by the aggressive efforts of Tucker Drimal and Will Miller on the wings at face-off who seemed to get every ground ball.
        The Trojans next play on Tuesday, May 13th against Immaculate.  It is the last regular season home game for six Weston seniors:  Doug Curtis, Nick Figliola, Robbie Glascott, Dylan Hannum, Jeff Ledwick, and Matt McMahon who have been playing lacrosse and admirably representing Weston since they were in 3rd and 4th grade.  Please join their teammates, parents, and friends and celebrate with the Trojans on Senior Night next Tuesday at 6:20.
