Witchey and Ross lead CB South to Senior Night Win Over Souderton
Doylestown, PA: Kevin Witchey and Timmy Ross helped Central Bucks South hold Souderton scoreless for more than three quarters in leading the Titans to an 8-5 victory in Suburban One Continental Boys lacrosse action on Thursday night at War Memorial Field.
After finding themselves in a 3-0 hole midway through the first quarter, the Titans tightened up their defense while scoring eight straight goals to take a 8-3 lead midway through the fourth quarter to put the game away.
CB South got their offensive streak started late in the first quarter when Dillon Kelly beat a Souderton defender from behind the net to score on goalie Remi Reeves. The second quarter started with Chris Tanner feeding Brendan McGrath for the Titans’ second score, which was followed by an unassisted blast from Evan Falkowski to knot the score 3-3 at the half.
The Titans came out firing in the third quarter, with Jamie Renaissen scoring off a feed from Evan Falkowski as CB South took their first lead of the game. Brendan McGrath than scored his second of the game off a feed from Jake Henze, which was followed by a McGrath assist on a goal by Chris Tanner. The Titans then took a 7-3 lead on a behind the back goal by Evan Falkowski off a shot that ricocheted off the post. Dillon Kelly closed out the Titans scoring in the fourth quarter when he put home a spectacular bounce pass from Jack “the dodger” Gallagher. Souderton added two goals in the game’s final minute to make it an 8-5 final.
Keying the defense was Ross and Witchey, with Witchey causing 10 Souderton turnovers, while Ross scooped up a team-high 7 groundballs. Fellow Titan defenders Danny Shields, Jake Lautt and Steve Nowelski were also instrumental in holding Souderton to only 11 shots on goal for the game. CB South Goalie Rob Richick recorded 6 saves.
For Souderton, Greg Gibbs scored three goals, while Jeremy Biggins had a goal and an assist and Anthony Potts added a goal. Remi Reeves was outstanding in the net, recording 19 saves.
