A complete team effort powered the CB East girls lacrosse team to an impressive win against cross town rival CB South. Contributions came from every area of the field.
Leading the offensive charge was McKenna Lynch, who delivered a standout performance with 4 goals. At the other end of the field goalie Lora Collins anchored the defense with 7 saves.
At the midfield Megan Fahey, Paige Dougherty, Cece Hayes, and Natalie Berndt controlled the midfield transitions, draw controls and caused turnovers setting the tempo for the game.
Defense doesn’t usually get the accolades and stats that attackers and midfielders do but they are so important to the success of a team. Our defense did a fantastic job today working together, communicating, sliding, causing turnovers and transitioning the ball up the field. Avery Stephenson, Bella DeHaven, Kayla Matlack, Ella Menard & Madison Beck were all instrumental parts of today’s win.

By the numbers:
McKenna Lynch (4 G) Amanda Ries (2G) Natalie Berndt (2G, 1 A) Paige Dougherty (1 G, 2 CTO, 7 DC) Cece Hayes (5 DC) Brooke Breen (1A, 1 CTO) Megan Fahey (1A, 2 CTO) Lora Collins (7 saves)
