Issaquah Lacrosse Team Dumps LW to Stay Unbeaten

Issaquah is now 11-0 on the season after the 14-3 victory.

ISSAQUAH -- Matt O'Neill and Ben Director each scored four goals as Issaquah extended its unbeaten string to a 11 games with a 14-3 boys high school lacrosse win over Lake Washington Monday at Issaquah High School.

The win kept first-place Issaquah’s perfect season intact and was the eighth game this season where the Eagles put up 10 or more goals.

After playing to a 1- 1 tie in the first, Issaquah netted four goals in the second to take a 5 - 3 lead into the intermission.  But in the second half the Eagles' defense kicked into gear blanking the Kangs for the final two quarters.  In the end, Issaquah netted four in the third and six in the fourth to shut down Lake Washington.
