It was a season of injuries and misfortune for Don Bosco Prep (NJ) in 2014.
The Ironmen went 8-10 after an 18-3 season in 2013.
If DBP is to bounce back in a big way this spring, Reilly O’Sullivan will have to play a big part.
The senior is one of the top attackmen in the tristate region. He is bound for Syracuse University after originally committing to Georgetown, with both those decisions first reported on LaxLessons.com.
Now, here are Riley’s perspectives on the season.
What have you been doing to get ready for the season?
From the beginning of September until the start of the season I’ve been lifting Mondays,Wednesdays and Fridays.
Also, I have lacrosse specific workouts on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
How does your schedule look, what games are you looking forward to most, and who are some of your scrimmages against?
Our schedule for the spring of 2015 season is very competitive. The game that I look forward to the most every year is Don Bosco Prep’s biggest rival in every sport, Bergen Catholic. Along with this game, I look forward to playing IMG Academy from Florida. The scrimmage that will give my team and me an early test is Yorktown.
What players on your team do you think will surprise some people this season?
The players that I think will have breakout season’s are Maryland-bound junior midfielder Russell Masci and Sophomore goal keeper Steve Rann.
What do you think the strength of your team will be this year?
Our team is very young this year, but I think our strengths are our speed and athleticism from the midfielders.
How do you view the race in your league and who do you think some of the contending teams will be?
The race to a league title is going to be very difficult this year. There are many teams that can and will compete for the title in the spring of 2015. My teammates and I will compete till the end and hopefully end up on top.
Teams in the Gibbs Division that will also be contending for a title are Mountain lakes, Bergen Catholic and Ramapo.
