Their bones may creak and their muscles may protest loudly after games, but Scott Morash and Brett Doig can still inflict pain on the opposition.
Morash and Doig, a pair of 45-year-olds for the BX Pub Bandits, combined for 17 points in a 16-6 playoff win against the Mackenzie LumberJax Thursday night in Mackenzie. With the victory, the Bandits took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five Prince George Senior Lacrosse Association semifinal series and put themselves in position for a sweep when Game 3 is played on Wednesday.
Morash, normally a defensive specialist, struck for two goals and six points, a total that stands as a career high. Doig, meanwhile, scored five times and finished with 11 points.
"He probably could have put up a couple more goals but he set me up on a couple nice ones," Morash said. "He was sort of sharing the wealth, so to speak."
