Brooks allowed a goal just 23 seconds into regulation, and was never able to recover, falling to Kimball Union 2-1 in the New England Prep Class B semifinals.

"We were very agressive and played most of the game in their zone," said coach Dusty Richard. "But we just couldn't finish."

Boxford's Nick Vozzella added two more goals to his season total, helping Brooks to a 3-1 wi over St. Paul's.  Vozella now has 12 goals and two assists for the Green and White, who now wait for an invitation to the Class B Prep tourney.  On defense, North Andover's Andres Burbank-Crump had another outstanding game.

Jon Stronach set up all three goals for Brooks, which drilled previously unbeaten St. Sebastian,3-1, in boys soccer. Nick Vozella had a pair of goals in the win.

Nick Potter scored with 20 seconds remaining to give Brooks a 1-0 win over Thayer. "He sacrificed his body and came out of it with a massive bloody nose. He stuck his face in between three boots and he headed it in,'' said Brooks coach Dusty Richard.

Nick Vozella took a pass from brother Alex and broke down field. He avoided three defenders, and as he was about to lose his balance, fired a pass accross the net to Drew Meyers. The North Andover resident blasted home the goal with two minues left in the game to give Brooks a 2-1 win over Phillips Academy. It was the first win for Brooks over the Big Blue in at least five years, according to coach Dusty Richard.
