The boys lax battle of San Diego surf vs. the Darien Wave was, sure enough, a wash after one period of bicoastal play. In came the home town tide, as Darien went up 3-0 early, and out it went again just like nature wants it, as visiting Torrey Pines High came back to tie it 3-3. And so, it remained no day at the beach for DHS, until, the tide turned for good with six unanswered Blue Wave goals, lifting the hosts to a 16-10 victory in the “Battle of East vs. West,” played to benefit the nation’s wounded soldiers at Stadium Field on Saturday afternoon. “They were sticking with us, then third quarter, we just realized we had to break out,” said Wave high-scorer Case Matheis, who led the game with five goals and seven points. “Just like (with) the Wilton game last Thursday. They were hanging with us.” “We had a couple of goals that really surged our momentum,” Falcons attack ace Sean Doyle (four goals, one assist) said. “Coming right off the half, into the third quarter we definitely had momentum — scored a couple of really nice goals.” In picture above, Peter Gesualdi, #26, right defends against Falcons Connor Lansdale, #27.
