With both teams playing tight defense, and both goalies in the zone, scoring chances were at a premium. Early on, the Trojans forced a few opportunities, with little to show.

BR then took the lead on a Josh Daisy goal to put them up 2-1 going into half time. The second half proved to be just as exciting as the first half as both teams were determined to win the game. Barnstable tied the game up at 2-2 midways through the third quarter and then took the lead in the beginning of the fourth. With BR being down 3-2, Alex Torres-Smith scored a timely goal to tie the game up once again. A Barnstable goal and a Trojan goal from Mike Pyne put the game at 4-4, but a late goal from Barnstable sealed the deal late in the game. Ryan Murphy had his best game of the season as he made great save after great save to keep BR in the game. 5/4 Varsity vs Medford: The Trojans traveled north, to take on Division One opponent Medford on Saturday night. After a somewhat sloppy start, the Trojans were able to grind through the Mustang's zone defense to earn four goals in the first quarter. B-R kept the pressure on, opening up a 10-0 lead in the third quarter. Some penalties by the Trojans allowed the host Mustangs to get some man-up looks for goals. The Trojans have five different players scoring goals, and four more chipping in with assists, exhibiting their mission of finding the "one more".

Brian Lundstedt, Matt Lemay, Zach Fries, Mickey Lombard, Drew Pickett and Alex Torres-Smith all played great for BR at midfield the whole game. 5/1 Varsity vs Silver Lake: The Boys Lacrosse team earned a non-league win over Silver Lake on Wednesday. After letting up a quick goal, the defense settled down and held the Lakers in check for most of the game. The offense, as they have all season, moved the ball well, and distributed the scoring. The Trojans had a season-high eleven different goal scorers, with five players netting multiple goals. The Trojans look to keep it rolling at Medford on Saturday night. JV: The Trojans went into Silver Lake looking to get off their current two game losing streak. The offense for the Trojans looked like a well-oiled machine the whole game. The ball movement and unselfishness allowed BR to put this game out of hand early. The combination between attackmen Josh Daisy and Tom Rizzo accounted for 6 goals between the two of them due to great passing from all of the offensive players. The defensive clearing from goalie Ryan Murphy, Danny Sullivan and Andrew Rodrigues and the intense pressure from Dylan Carrerro, Jonathan Cox and Mason Owens were the major factor in the win for the Trojans. 4/29 JV vs Norwell: A rematch of the week before, BR went to Norwell to try to avenge their loss just four days prior. This time the Trojans came ready to play and made this game very interesting until the end. Norwell took control early in the game by storming out to a 3-0 lead after the first quarter. The second quarter was much more even as both teams scored 2 goals to leave Norwell up 5-2 going into half time. The third quarter proved to belong to virtually no one as Norwell scored one goal late in the quarter to put them up 6-2. The fourth quarter belonged to the Trojans who scored 4 goals in the quarter and made this game much tighter. Norwell ended up scoring 2 goals late in the game to make BR's efforts too little too late. Both teams collectively all played very well and it was a hard fought game throughout. 4/27 Varsity vs Nantucket: The Boys Lacrosse team traveled to Nantucket in Maritime League action on Saturday. After some sloppy play to start the game, the Trojans were able to capitalize on a number of penalties, to open up a lead. The defense played aggressively, but in control. Goalie Matt LaFond had 7 saves, and Kyle "Bubba" Talyor added 2 saves. B-R had eight different goal scorers and two others chipping in with assists. With the win, the Trojans have qualified for the Division I State tournament for the fourth consecutive season! 4/25 JV vs Norwell: The beginning of the game between BR and Norwell seemed like it was going to be a very close game down to the wire. The score was tied at 1-1 with six minutes gone in the first quarter, but then Norwell took control of the game. The Trojans couldn't seem to find anything on offense after their first goal. Norwell played very good defense and made it tough for the Trojans to build momentum. The goalie for Norwell proved to be the difference in the game as he made amazing save after save. The defense for the Trojans played solid as a unit, but it wasn't enough to get the win. 4/24 Varsity vs New Bedford: The Trojans traveled down to New Bedford and earned a Maritime League victory over the host Whalers. Do-it-all offensive player, Cam Goodrich, got the scoring going early, and the Trojans didn't look back.

JV: After a tough loss to Hingham, the Trojans went into New Bedford looking to get back to their winning ways. Mickey Lombard, Sam MacKillop and Matt Lemay all played very well as midfielders on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball throughout the game. BR's offense was very strategic, always making the extra pass to the open man, which lead to easy goals. The defensive played as a very solid unit the whole game and made it very hard for the Whalers to get anything offensively. The goalie play between Ryan Murphy and Mike Pyne, with both making great saves all game, allowed the Trojans to preserve the shutout. 4/22 JV vs Hingham: The Trojans faced a very tough Hingham team at home after coming off two solid wins. Hingham came out firing on all cylinders and put this game out of reach early. The Trojans did all they could do to stop Hingham's offense but ball movement and ground balls seemed to be the difference. 4/20 Varsity vs Wayland: The Boys Lacrosse team suffered their first defeat at the hands of a strong Wayland team. Both teams' defenses and goalies were outstanding. The score at half-time was 1-1, showing how even the teams were. In the second half, the visiting Warriors were able to find some shooting space and capitalized. The Trojans started to claw back with a goal in the fourth quarter.

The majority of the first quarter was dictated by Norwell as they jumped out to a 2-0 lead going into the second quarter. The second quarter was much more evenly matched with both teams scoring a goal. The third quarter was dominated by the Norwell offense as the Trojans had a tough time keeping the ball out of their side of the field. The fourth quarter proved to be a strong quarter for the Trojans as they tried to make their way back in the game by scoring 3 of their 4 goals. They started to move the ball around on offense a lot better and became more more efficient with clearing the ball out of their side of the field which lead to several fast break opportunities.
