The Varsity Blues men’s lacrosse recorded their second consecutive win as they defeated the Bishop’s Gaiters 14-5 on Sunday, October 24 at Back Campus.
With the win, the Blues improve to 3-7 and secure the last playoff spot in the CUFLA East division. Toronto will travel to Lennoxville, Que. next weekend for a rematch with the Bishop’s Gaiters in their first playoff game since 2007.
Toronto scored seven unanswered goals to put the game away in the first half. Bishop’s Mike Dube broke the shut out late in the second quarter as Toronto held a 7-1 lead at halftime.
Blues goalie Joncarlo Bairos of Toronto was phenomenal in net and made a highlight-reel save on a Bishop’s player that was all alone in front of the net.
Toronto extended the lead to 10-2 heading into the final quarter and wrapped up the game with five goals to the Gaiters three.
Mike Ayotte of Peterborough, Ont., again led Toronto with five goals and one assist in the win. Toronto native Daniel Fleming added two goals and five assists, while Michael Buwalda had four goals in the win.
