Marjory Stoneman Douglas boys lacrosse began their season with back-to-back wins over Coral Glades and South Plantation High School this week.

Locke is assisted by Austin Figas, the older brother of current player Shane Figas. who Locke says he has been tremendously helpful.

“We are off to a very strong start, but we are not going to let it get to our heads,” said Locke. “We plan to work hard and attack every game with the same power we did the first two. I look forward to the rest of the season and seeing what else these boys can deliver.”

The Eagles have now started their season 2-0 in three of the past four years. Darren Edenbaum, the team leading scorer for the past two years, shined with 15 goals and ten assists in the first two games and now has 90 in his career. Preston Gerena also had nine goals in the two games as MSD outscored their opponents 44-2.

The rest of the team consists of Jaiden Cable, Jerry Thomas, Ryan Spallina, Matthew Koesten, Preston Gerena, Henry Leon, Luke Lesny, Montgomery Kantner, Michael Nason, Jacob Pleffner, Michael Cacace, Ethan Pakhomav, Talan Smollett, Andrew Greenberg, Alec Gordon, Nate Klein, Joshua Johnson, Dhruv Mutha, Matthew Nason, Michael Fierstat, Josner Rodicio, Ethan Hand, Mateo Hermosillo, Julian Victoria, Zaid Popen and Noah Ozan.
