Goalie Cohen Krudwig helped Santa Ana Foothill hold off Loyola 9-8 in the Southern Section Division 1 boys' lacrosse championship game Friday.
The Santa Ana Foothill High goalie had come from nowhere. No preparation. No warning. On nobody’s radar except Foothill’s, in and out of the Knights program for a couple of years, not picking up a jersey until midway through the lacrosse season this spring upon enough poking and prodding from coach Jon Fox and his team captain son, Luke.
And there he was, in early April, swallowing up Loyola’s powerhouse offense during a Foothill victory in which the Cubs scored just five goals.Advertisementwas unknown to the Cubs because lacrosse was a hobby. A “baby brother,” as he put, to the sport in the driver’s seat, ice hockey, in which Krudwig is a defender on an 18U team with the Junior Ducks.
Corona’s Ethan Hill, an unheralded senior, delivers a walk-off double with two outs in the 10th inning to defeat No. 1-seeded Sherman Oaks Notre Dame. It doesn’t make sense, really. Lacrosse goalie is one of the hardest jobs in sports. But to Krudwig, the pressure in the cage in lacrosse, amid a mad scramble, is familiar: He can relax and take his time, relying on hand-eye coordination he has built from years of learning to juggle.
