Here is a quote from the game article posted on this site for the Sonoma v. Lindenwood game: "Both teams substituted early and often. Nine different players scored for Sonoma State. Lindenwood's Jimmy Lang (4g) led all scorers.
Game article means nothing.
Although Sonoma played their back-up goalie and substituted regularly, Sonoma played to win. There back-up goalie is very good, is very well qualified at his position, and a great asset to Sonoma lacrosse. The remaining players for Sonoma, although not always at their regular positions, played to win. Myself, as well as all the other Sonoma parents and supporters wanted this win. However, things don't always end as we had hoped.
The Lindenwood Lacrosse Team won, got what they were hoping for, and this victory for them should not be diminished in any way.
Congratulations Lindenwood on your victory.
