Brooks grabbed its share of the Gummere Cup with a determined
and hard won victory over rival St. Paul's this afternoon in Concord and
finished an 8-0-0 run in the last four weeks. The home side presented an
athletic and enthusiastic side for the full ninety and Brooks labored to find a
good finishing ball. It was Alex Wagner who finally found it in the 55th minute
after a clever through ball from Sam Milbury, who pushed on from the back. Zach
Vieira did the same for Andrew Bruno who finished cleanly in the 69th minute.
It was at just this time that the score from West Roxbury became known. Rivers
had fallen to Roxbury Latin 2-0 and Brooks needed only twenty more minutes to
secure a share of the ISL Championship.The boys were energized and played with
all out passion. At the final whistle the Brooksians celebrated wildly their
great good fortune over a long campaign and their coaches could not be more
proud of them. The forty points amassed this season (13-1-1) was the second
highest total in school history.
