White's record day not enough for N.S. Tech

Head coach Mike Drouin felt North Shore Tech played its best game of the season against Minuteman Regional Saturday in Lexington. But it still wasn't enough as it dropped a 28-27 decision.

"It's the worst feeling yet," said Drouin. "It's an emotional game and the kids really feel it after this one." The Bulldogs lost despite a sensational game by Cam White, who set a school record for most touchdown receptions (4) and most yards (203) by a receiver. North Shore Tech quarterback David St. Pierre also set a school mark with four TD passes. White, meanwhile, finished with eight catches.

"White did a great job," said Drouin. "He's been doing it all season. The kid is a big-time player."

North Shore Tech trailed, 28-21, in the waning minutes when St. Pierre hooked up with White for a 47-yard touchdown pass that brought the Bulldogs to within one, 28-27. The Bulldogs attempted a two-point conversion but a pass in the flat fell incomplete.

"We went for the win on the road," said Drouin, explaining the try for two points with three minutes left in the game. "We're 0-7 (now 0-8), so what are you going to do? It was our best chance to win. We just didn't convert."

White had a touchdown catch in each quarter. The first one covered 46 yards, the second 50 yards, the third 35 yards and the fourth 47 yards.

St. Pierre also put up big numbers, finishing 9 for 19 passing for 211 yards. He threw one interception along with the four touchdown passes.

St. Pierre and White also paced the Bulldogs ground game. St. Pierre carried twice for 31 yards and White had six carries for 24 yards.
