NORTHEAST
Ryan Colsey, Ridgefield (Conn.)
Ryan Colsey led by example for Ridgefield in a 15-4 win over Rye (N.Y.), a favorite in Section I, Class B, as the Virginia-bound senior lefty attack showcased his complete arsenal with eight goals, including six in the second half as the Tigers pulled away.
“Ryan played a great game against Rye, scoring his eight goals in a variety of ways,” said Ridgefield coach Roy Colsey. “He’s an emotional leader who plays with his heart on his sleeve.”
