The winning continues for the Duxbury boys’ lacrosse team, as it opened its season with an 11-5 win over Cohasset last Tuesday afternoon at Taylor Field in Duxbury.

While Cohasset is a Division III school, they are the defending state champions in their division, and presented a good opening test for the Dragons.

The strength of the Duxbury team is its midfield, and senior Hakeem Lecky showed why, as he notched four goals to lead the Dragon attack.

Duxbury’s forward line showed that they’ll have to be reckoned with too, as senior captain Jake Harvey and sophomore Kane Haffey each netted three goals.

Despite being tied at 2-2 in the first half, the Dragons never trailed and went into intermission with a 7-3 lead made possible by the goaltending of junior Mickey Zaverucha, who got the nod in the opener.

The Dragons had a much easier time in their Patriot League opener on Thursday in Hanover, as they throttled the Indians, 18-5.

Harvey had another big game up front with four goals and three assists, while Haffey was just as effective with a hat-trick and three assists.

After a pair of Patriot League match-ups with Pembroke and Quincy, weather permitting, the Dragons will face their stiffest test of the young season when they entertain Xaverian Brothers on Saturday at noontime on Taylor Field.
