The Westhampton Beach boys lacrosse team split its two games last week, losing 7-6 at home to Shoreham/Wading River in double overtime on Friday after winning 10-5 at Babylon on March 28.
Though it is a Class C team, Shoreham/Wading River remains one of the top squads in Division II and Westhampton Beach went toe to toe with the Wildcats. At the end of three quarters, Shoreham was up by just a goal, 6-5.
Both teams played a scoreless fourth quarter until, with 16 seconds remaining on the clock, junior Hurricane Casey Hickey scored on a skip-pass from fellow junior Jack Murphy to tie things up and force overtime. Both teams failed to find the back of the net in the first overtime, so they played a sudden victory period.
