Paterson News June 10, 1974 Boonton Can 't Get Shots Mahwah's Ancona Wins State Title -if i By RICK aDOWSKI News' Sports Staff MADISON The Boonton lacrosse team would love to replay the first and fourth quarters of Us combined groups state championship match with Montclalr. It was in these two periods that the Bombers were outacored by an 8-1 margin on the way to a 9-2 defeat, here Saturday, at Fairlelgh Dickinson University. "You can't score, if you don't shoot," the old axiom says and that's exactly what happened to the defending state champions, especially in those two decisive stanzas. While the Bombers, who closed out a fine season with a 10-4 record, were making Just six shots on goal, Montclalr was peppering Boonton goaltender Jim Van Langen with 22. "We expected to get a few more shots than we did and we Just didn't get them," said dejected Bomber coach, Dick Risk.

But Risk doesn't feel that the shots, or lack of them, only factors In his club's loss. 'There was nothing particular, just the general play, Montclalr performed well. They executed. They just beat us." And while Montclair's squad, which now owns a 13-2 mark (lnlcuding an 11-4 victory over Boontoh In an earlier meeting this season) was playing near-perfect defense, the Mounties were also doing well at the offensive end of the field. It took the winners lust 3:52 to take a commanding 3-0 lead, an advantage Montclalr.

was never in any serious danger of losing. The Mounties used ball control, deceptive moves and finesse to pressure the young Boon-ton team (which included 10 sophomores) Into several defensive mistakes. Midfielder John Mutch didn't waste any time putting the Mounties on the scoreboard with a pair of goals within a span of three minutes and flya seconds. He opened up the contest's scoring at 0:32 after taking a pass from attackman Joe Reilly and then rifled another shot, unassisted, past Van Langen at the 3:37 mark. The Mountle game, aggressive play on offense while keeping Boonton hemmed up in its own end on defense, worked almost perfectly.

The only defensive lapses they had occurred after building up 4-0 and 8-1 leads. The first took place at the start of the second half after Boonton's John Toland took a 10-foot shot that sailed over the Montclalr net. But the Bomber's Brian Kee retrieved the loose sphere and passed off to Paul Belshaw, who beat Montclalr goalie Dave Dufresne with a 40-foot line drive at 1:07, of the third period. The second and final sue cessful offensive thrust by Boonton came In the final quarter when sophomore Wayne Krum scampered down the right sideline, be fore bouncing a shot past Dufresne with 10:25 to go.

Luso had beaten the Polish Falcons, a watered-down version of the N.Y. Intergiuliana and Paterson Bozkurt. Bozkurt gave a good accounting of itself, winning two of three.

Darkhorse Trenton, led by the steady, probing, tenacious play of Kevin Welsh and Glenn Myernick, who each tallied two goals in their four games, whipped the Roma Sport Club, the N.Y. Hungarians and the favored N.Y. Hellenic squad en route to the championship. Extension's Welsh, playing inside left, was particularly outstanding, taking the tournament's "Most Valuable Player" award. But defense was the name of the game in the 12-team, 11-game under-the-lights competition.

Nine of the games resulted in shutouts, while Bozkurt and Extension led all in scoring with five, goals apiece, although the former was Involved In one less game.

Macedonia was later knock ed out of contention in it confrontation with Hellenic in the last minute of play.
