North Cross used a swarming defense to shut down the Trinity School offense Tuesday afternoon in winning the VIC Division 3 lacrosse semifinal 9-3 on Thomas Field at North Cross.
The Raiders scored the first six goals of the game and it proved too much for the Tempest to overcome the rest of the match.Although Trinity was able to find the net twice in the last two minutes of the first half to cut the deficit to 6-2 at the break, North Cross scored twice to start the second half and were never threatened the rest of the way. The teams traded goals in the somewhat chippy fourth quarter for the final margin.
