GREENWICH — There were enough smart players on the field, maybe bigger or stronger players. When Greenwich had to run out the last 35 seconds of its boys lacrosse game against Cheshire on Thursday, though, the ball started in Jack Cook’s crosse.
“We had to keep it in for the last minute. I just had to run around a few kids,” the senior midfielder said. “There was a pretty big collision at the end, but that’s what we like to see.” He chuckled. “Good way to end it.”
The officials flagged that collision, but it didn’t matter. No. 7 Greenwich held the ball to complete a 10-9 win over the No. 9 Rams, finishing both teams’ regular seasons with a barn-burner.
