Historic Effort Sends Triton Lacrosse Past Dolphins
There simply was no stopping the San Clemente boys lacrosse team on April 11.
The Tritons played host to rival Dana Hills and delivered a complete performance for the record books in a 28-0 South Coast League victory.
San Clemente set new program records in goals scored and largest margin of victory in the win.
The Tritons (8-2, 5-0 league) jumped out to an early lead and did not let up, scoring 21 goals on 37 shot attempts in the first half alone. By the final whistle, 13 different Triton players had found the back of the net.
The Tritons were led by Matt Keany (four goals, three assists), Jake Steele (six goals) and Nick Lemus (three goals, one assist).
