The varsity boys soccer team earned two shutouts within the past week, including a 3-0 win against Wickliffe and a 2-0 win against Hawken for Senior Day. Against Wickliffe, Kessel Richards '21 scored just 90 seconds into the contest on an assist by Eric Brandt '21. Then at the three-minute mark, Braden Birko '20 (pictured) scored his first goal of the season on an assist by Max Mendels '19, who then scored a goal of his own. Matt Beck '21 earned his third shutout of the season. The Lancers then went on to defeat rival Hawken for the second consecutive season. Gilmour has not beaten Hawken in back-to-back years in the regular season since the 1976 and 1977 seasons. Goals were scored by Kyle Laws '22 and Bowden Slabe '20 with both assists by Vinny Catanese '19. Beck earned his fourth shutout in goal with six saves.
