Odds and ends: The Sachems had 44 athlete try out, down from 50 candidates last year ... Still, coach Geoff Beckett had to make cuts for the first time. ... Nate Bunnell, a standout on the football team, brings an aggressive approach to lacrosse. ... Football lineman Matt Fiore and wrestler Ben Stasiuk are also poised for big seasons.
Coach Geoff Beckett (3rd year, 14-23): "We have a lot of guys coming back, especially in the midfield. They seem to have a lot more team knowledge. I really like our defense. (Dylan) Chase and (Taylor) Cahill are looking strong at attack. A lack of scoring was a weak point last year."
