BRUNSWICK The Brunswick boys lacrosse team was ready Thursday night. So was its defense.
Behind a second half adjustment and a surge of goals from forward Sean Lyne, the Dragons knocked off the only remaining unbeaten team in Class A, topping Messalonskee 14-8.
“We knew this was our most important game of the season so far,” said Brunswick defensive captain Ethan Upham. “The boys were buzzing all day, we wanted this one badly.”

Instead, the undefeated Windjammers found itself suffering its first loss of the season 10-3 at the hands of the undefeated Eagles.
With the loss, Camden Hills’ record drops to 4-1. Messalonskee, meanwhile, improved its standing to 6-0.
“I absolutely love playing teams like Messalonskee because they are one of the great teams that challenges us, always brings their A game, and shows us what we can improve on for a potential playoff run,” said Camden Hills head coach Harrison Rogers. “We are hoping to have a chance to see them again in the playoffs.”

Top storylines: Avoiding a COVID-19 pause may come down to luck, but navigating a season in which teams can expect games postponed or cancelled will be a key. With teams playing more regionally-based schedules, will new rivalries emerge?
Changes: The biggest change is the wearing of masks at all times. Athletes who competed in winter sports should have an easier time adjusting. For boys lacrosse players wearing helmets, keeping the mask from sliding down could prove difficult. It will be up to officials and coaches to help make sure masks are always worn properly.
