Both Old Rochester Regional High School boys and girls lacrosse teams have played five games so far this season, and neither team has had a hiccup yet. Most recently, the Bulldogs lacrosse programs put their respective 4-0 records to the test against Fairhaven on May 31. Both won by double-digit scores.
ORR boys lacrosse knocked off the Blue Devils, 20-1, following up their crucial 11-4 win on May 28 over previously undefeated Dighton-Rehoboth. Brendan McIntire continues to lead the Bulldogs on offense, scoring five goals and dishing out three assists in the win against Fairhaven. Brady Lee had a hat trick against the Blue Devils, finishing with four goals and an assist, and Tyler Cardinal also had five points in the win, scoring three times while assisting two goals.
Just like the ORR boys, girls lacrosse had a tougher time with Dighton-Rehoboth than Fairhaven. But the Bulldogs still beat the Falcons comfortably, 19-11, thanks in large part to Maddie Wright and her six goals. Teagan Shay finished second with four goals against Dighton-Rehoboth, and Maggie Carroll had three in the May 28 win. Then, on May 31, the Bulldogs took care of business at home against the Blue Devils, winning 18-8.
