Slow Start Dooms Devils Against Lenox

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Nic Baruch registered a hat trick to lead the Lenox boys soccer team to a 5-0 win over Drury on Tuesday afternoon.

 

Baruch scored the game's first three goals, including the last on a penalty kick, as the Millionaires took a five-goal lead into half-time and never looked back.

 

The Blue Devils (1-2) played better after the break but could not break through against the Lenox defense.

 

" We made many mistakes in the first half and just played with no drive," Drury coach Greg Caproni said. "At halftime we made some adjustments and talk about playing up to our potential.

 

"We came out in the second half playing much fast, more physical and talking on the field much more.  Even though we never got a solid shot off, we had some great chances and it was an exciting second half."

 

Joe Liporace made nine saves for the Devils, who will host Wahconah on Friday.
