The Rangers’ Boys Lacrosse Team had prepared well for the tough game against the Shrewsbury Colonials, the number three team in Central Mass, that took place on May 7.  The Rangers gave it their all in the game, topping Shrewsbury with a score of 14-4.

After previously losing to the Colonials 12-3, the Rangers came ready to play and made it known that they were on the Rangers’ turf, and they were not going to let Shrewsbury leave with another win.  Within minutes of the game starting, senior Tony Cibelli scored giving the Rangers a lead of 1-0.  Westborough continued to roll, taking an early 3-0 lead.  After Shrewsbury’s leading scorer scored, Jake Foster scored the first of his soon to be hat trick.

Only minutes into the second quarter, Sean Anderson (Sr.), Connor Joyce (Jr.), and Kyle Lemack (Jr.) each scored for Westborough, giving the team a 9-1 lead, heading into the half.  The Rangers’ goalie, Dan Terry (Sr.), stonewalled 8 tough Shrewsbury shots, and let up only four by the end of the game.  Unfortunately for Shrewsbury, their goalie, Chris Gorman, who was thought to be the number one goalie in Central Mass, was turned upside down, letting in 14 goals to send Westborough into a frenzy.

The Rangers left the field on a natural high, feeling that they can beat any team that stands between them and a prestigious District Championship title.
