Boca Raton boys lacrosse beats crosstown rival to win district title

Boca Raton's boys lacrosse squad checked off two very important boxes on Wednesday night. Following a regular season loss to the Bulls, the Bobcats achieved redemption over West Boca Raton with a 17-3 victory ― and more importantly, they were awarded district hardware in the process. Eight players recorded goals for Boca Raton, who matched their season-high goal output in the district championship win.

Dylan Buffone led the way with four goal scored, and James Marzan found the back of the net another three times. Nathan Crow, Robert Frank, Finn Donnelly, and Julio Kimberly all added two goals apiece, setting the stage for regional momentum as the team awaits their opening-round selection on Friday, April 17.

It was a very different story this time around, with Boca Raton dominating the scoreboard, nursing a 2-1 lead through the end of the first quarter before exploding for a nine-goal second quarter. "We knew coming in here, our systems were in place, our guys were ready to go," head coach James Booth said. "It was about us today.

I told them in the locker room, 'it's not a big game because it's a district championship. It's not a big game because it's a big match. It's a big game because we're playing in it.
