The game, originally scheduled for a 5:30 p.m. start, now won’t get under way till 6 p.m.
We’ll be back with updates.
First quarter
UPDATE 1: Rocky Point’s Dan Kramer scores 34 seconds into the game. The Eagles take a 1-0 lead.
In the other Class B semi, Section 6’s Hamburg leads Carthage 7-1 after one.
UPDATE 2: Kevin Drew scores off a low blast from 20 yards out. It’s tied at 1-1 with 9:57 left in the first.
UPDATE 3: Kramer connects again with 8:22 left in the quarter. Rocky Point has controlled play, winning all three faceoffs. The Eagles have hit the post twice. It’s 2-1 RP.
UPDATE 4: John Jay wins its first faceoff and Billy LaPerch scores off a feed from Tyler Granelli. It’s tied 2-2. I get the feeling we could have a high-scoring game.
UPDATE 5: An apparent goal by Chris Bocklet is waved off because of interference.
UPDATE 6: Drew sprints in and scores on another low shot. John Jay leads 3-2 with 5:30 left.
UPDATE 7: Matt Palasek ties it at 3-3.
UPDATE 8: Harrison Jones scored off a Tyler Granelli feed. It’s 4-3 JJ.
UPDATE 9: Matt Palasek scores again. It’s tied 4-4.

UPDATE 11: We’ve completed one quarter. It’s tied 4-4.
Second quarter
UPDATE 12: Harrison Jones puts one through the legs of RP goalie Bill McGee off a feed from Kevin Drew to start the period. JJ takes a 5-4 lead.

UPDATE 21: We’ve completed three. JJ leads 9-7. Can the Indians make the state final for the second straight year?

FINAL
7:16 p.m. Carthage has the ball in its own end with 28 seconds left. Hamburg managed to keep possession until a 10-man ride—when the goalie comes out to mark a player—got the ball loose from a stumbling Hamburg player, and Carthage called timeout.
7:18 p.m. We're tied at 16-16 with 15.6 seconds left
7:21 p.m. We have a FINAL SCORE: Carthage 17, Hamburg 16 in an unbelievable finish.

exactly.
Lol calm down dude. Great season JJ. Pretty disappointing stuff for section 1 but better luck in the years to come and good luck Rye.
laxer thats such a weak statement
"whatever jj has more titles, we still dominate"...

and everyone else for jj
great season and career boys
section 1 lax…
CONGRATULATIONS to Jay for a great Season.
You played your hearts out and just came up a little short.
Good Luck to Rocky point in Saturdays Final.
What!!! A LI sweep of Section 1. I guess Section 1 is just not up to the level of Sections 8 and 11. Maybe next year?
best team today was town. when is li coming 2 play in our house? total BS today,msg must need the ratings
How did Section IX do against the long island teams yesterday?
Cant enjoy a great game. Total class game by both teams.1 had to win 1 had to loose. GOOD LUCK TO BOTH
Sec 9 stop talking you sound like a fool, most of the better J V teams in Sec 1 would beat your best.. If the Sec 1 teams that your Sec 9 just played left in there first 2 lines all game you would have lost by 30 or more GOAL"S… The reason you are getting a responce like this is because you have only neg things to say.. We in Sec 1 who are true Lacrosse fan want your Sec 9 to get much better for all of us and the game!!!
Just wondering – How many of you true lacrosse fans made the trip to Hofstra today for the games? I did!
