Boys’ Latin topples St. Mary’s

In boys lacrosse, Lakers defense deals first loss to nationally ranked Saints

- By Katherine Fominykh

No one could stop St. Mary’s boys lacrosse. No one, at least, until it met Cardin Stoller.

The Boys’ Latin senior goalkeeper gulped down 14 St. Mary’s shots, anchoring the first team in 2022 to defeat the nationally ranked Saints in a defensive battle.

After surging to a significan­t lead at halftime, the visiting No. 2 Lakers piled on two more two goals in the fourth quarter to become the first ones to deliver a loss to the No. 1 Saints, 7-4.

St. Mary’s loss included some other rarities, too — no goals from leading scorer Nick Golini, and not for a lack of trying. He and the other Saints took 47 shots that, thanks to a smothering Boys’ Latin defense, they just could not complete.

“I think that’s the first game we played a full four quarters,” Stoller said. “That’s something we’ve been trying to get all year, and to hold a team like that to three goals is pretty impressive.”

With just one Maryland Interschol­astic Athletic Associatio­n A Conference loss, the Saints (14-1) still sit atop the standings. With only two games to go, there are bigger, more important prizes ahead. St. Mary’s is locked into a top-four seed, guaranteei­ng a home playoff game.
