Minneapolis Floods SLP Orioles in Boys Lacrosse Home Opener

As torrential rains pelted the turf field at St. Louis Park High School, Peyton Krause scored four goals to lead Minneapolis to a 13-6 win over the host St. Louis Park Orioles Tuesday night in the boys lacrosse home opener.

Minneapolis would score the first two goals of the first quarter that started with a center slot goal from Krause and a liner by Campbell Goff.  The Orioles would get on the scoreboard on Brody Ilstrup's goal from the center slot but Minneapolis came back :14 later when Jack Pearson tallied.  Ilstrup scored his second goal as he went around the left side of the net and put the ball in.  It was 3-2 Minneapolis at the end of the first period.

St. Louis Park would strike early in the second period as Ilstrip got the hat trick with a shot from the 25 yard line.  It wasn't all Ilstrup for the Orioles since Jackson Lochan would score from the right side and Minneapolis got a goal from Nat Shogren.  Ilstrup would score his fourth goal with 1:10 left in the first half abd it looked like he would get his fifth with :06.5 to go but the official disallowed the goal due to an illegal stick,  St. Louis Park led 5-4 at halftime.

The Orioles lead would be washed away in the third period as Krause would score two goals in a span of 1:12.  His second came as he went through two St. Louis Park defenders and scored.  Ilstrip would score his fifth goal to tie the game at six but that would be all the scoring for St. Louis Park as Minneapolis would begin a seven goal run in the period to put the game away.  They would add a goal from Thomas Moreno with 1:51 left in the period to start the run.

Minneapolis would add six more goals to their ledger in the fourth period. Owen Kumasaka would begin the scoring, followed by Krause's fourth goal.  Ben Neal would tally :16 later, followed by Pearson, Jackson Schueller and Henry Huibregtse.

Minneapolis improved their record to 2-2 and hosts the Apple Valley Eagles on Saurday, April 29 at 11 AM at Mpls. Southwest High School.  St. Louis Park fell to 1-3 and hosts the Orono Spartans on Friday, April 28 at 7 PM.
