This year s lacrosse team's chances for anything better than just a barely winning season appeared to be slim. The team of '50 that was ranked third among New England prep schools los: thirteen of its twenty-four members through graduation and didn't promise to leave much for the next yearis team. But on April 21st the red jerseys of Middlesex came through in the last two minutes of their opener against Boston Lacrosse Club 5-4. Ostheimer knotted the score in the last minutes and sent the game into a ten-minute over- time which we won. Shriver and Latta also got two goals. Traveling to Cambridge on April 25th we met and conquered a highly regarded Harvard Freshman team 10-6. At the half, Middlesex held a 5-2 lead over its Over-confident opponents, but when Harvard scored two quick goals in the third period to make the count 5--4, it seemed as if the spell had worn oil. But we bounced back to win handily. The scorers were Agen Us J, Shriver ll J, Ustheimer CZJ, Wells. Carney. and Little one each. lime Nirieri- our M1nnLhsEx SCHOOL CONCORD. MASSACHUSFTTS '. , ..
