All season, Fairfield Ludlowe has been a thorn in the sides of some of the state’s top boys lacrosse teams. At the biggest moment, the pesky Falcons took one of them down.
Goalie Murphy Hoey didn’t allow a goal for the last 26-plus minutes, and Liam Keesser’s goal 1:24 into the second four-minute overtime period gave Ludlowe an 8-7 win at New Canaan on Saturday in the CIAC Class L qualifying round.
