The Lakers improved to 6-5 on the Major Series Lacrosse season and remain in third place in the standings. The win also split the season series with Cobourg, with each team now holding one victory ahead of the rubber match on July 23 at the Memorial Centre.

Peterborough led 2-1 after the first period with goals from Frank Coyle and Brad McCulley.

The game broke open in the second period, where the Lakers scored seven unanswered goals while keeping Cobourg off the board. Four of those goals came on the power play.

McCulley finished with a four-point night, scoring twice and adding three assists. Ryan Lanchbury had a seven-point performance with two goals and five assists, while Braedon Saris also scored twice and added four assists.

Frank Coyle, Thomas Hoggarth, Justin Sykes, Adam Jay and Daniel Clark also scored for Peterborough. Clark’s goal came shorthanded and was his first of the season.

Goaltender Drew Hutchison stole the show for the second Thursday in a row, making another 50 saves in net, and was once again named the game’s first star.

The Lakers head to Six Nations on Tuesday before returning home next Thursday to host Owen Sound.
