The Cranston West boys soccer team dropped a 3-2 decision to the defending champion Bishop Hendricken Hawks last week at home.

The teams exchanged goals in the first half and were tied 2-2 at the break. However, the Hawks got a goal in the second half which would be enough as they shut down the West offense the rest of the way.

West got goals from Nate Zarone and Matteo Ingiardi while Gabe Fajardo recorded an assist. Jack Payne finished with 18 saves in net.

The Falcons fell to 5-3-3 with the loss and entered the week in sixth place in Division I. The team traveled to Tolman on Tuesday but the results were unavailable at press time.

FOOTBALL

Moses Brown 22, East 8

The visiting Quakers held off the host Thunderbolts last week to grab the Division III win.

The Bolts trailed 16-0 in the second quarter and got a touchdown when Kalsin Yan rushed for a score, followed by a 2-point play by Nathan Huorth to cut the deficit in half. 

It would be all Moses Brown from there though, as it added a second half score and played shut out defense to claim the victory.
