Brunswick clinched its second-ever undefeated regular season – and first under Coaches David Bruce and Brendan Gilsenan – with an 11-5 win over Staples on Tuesday afternoon.

The first quarter ended in a 1-1 stalemate. There was no shot clock, so it was a quarter of long possessions for the Wreckers and great defense for the Bruins. 

Staples scored quickly to start the second and that was its last of the half. Brunswick’s offense found its footing and got six goals past a strong Staples’ goalie. Stat sheet regulars Casey Quinson and Payton Anderson led the charge – 7-2 Bruins at the break. 

Brunswick controlled play in the third quarter with three goals to the home team’s zero. The Bruins used the lack of shot clock to their advantage and ran long offensive possessions – 10-2 Brunswick with 12 minutes to play. 

After few goals from the Wreckers in the fourth and the Bruins’ lone goal thanks to a hard drive to the net by Emmett Meagher, Brunswick’s sideline had plenty to celebrate as time expired on the regular season. 

Focus now shifts to the semi-finals of Prep Nationals on Friday night, when the Bruins will take to Cosby Field in the 7:30 p.m. slot. Their opponent will be decided by the result of the Salisbury/Deerfield game on Wednesday afternoon.
