Offenses Collide When RHS LAX Hosts Eastview on Tuesday

The Rosemount boys' lacrosse team will play host to Eastview on Tuesday in a battle of top-ranked teams and conference foes.

The Rosemount boys’ lacrosse team will get a solid test Tuesday night when the No. 3-ranked Eastview Lightning venture to town. Eastview is undefeated on the season at 6-0 and tied with Rosemount atop the South Suburban Conference with identical 3-0 records in conference play.

Eastview comes in with a potent scoring duo of Jake Heppner (20 goals) and Ryan McNamara (19) who have combined to help the Lightning average 14 goals per game.

The No. 6-ranked Irish have demonstrated plenty of their own offensive firepower in building a 5-1 mark on the season. Rosemount is averaging nearly 16 goals per game thanks in part to the scoring prowess of Matt Weller (22 goals) and Grant VanOverbeke (20).
