On their home field, the Penn-Trafford girls lacrosse team won against Plum, the previous year’s section winners.
Team captain Sophia Green said, “We improved drastically from the 2023 season and got an 11 to 3 win against the reigning section champs.”
Georgia Vislocky got the first goal of the game during quarter one. Just 36 seconds later, Lily Crenshaw scored and was assisted by Green. A third goal was scored by Vislocky.
The second quarter was a hard fight from both the Warriors and the Mustangs, but it ultimately ended in no points scored by either side, due to the strong defense brought by P-T.
The score at half time was 3 P-T to 0 Plum.
“We worked hard to get here and we did our best,” said Green. “Our defense was amazing.”
Carly Venanzi made the first goal of the third quarter which was also the first point for Plum.
Avery Bosack scored at 9:59 and was quickly followed with an additional goal by Green at 9:40. Green got two more goals during this quarter of the game.
The third quarter ended with 7 P-T to 1 Plum.
Vislocky, Green, Bosack, and Annabelle Aquino got four additional points for P-T during the final quarter, with one goal scored by each. Two goals were also scored by Plum.
The game ended with a final goal by Bosack with only 20 seconds left on the clock.
Additionally throughout the game goalkeeper Madison Hagan made a total of seven saves for P-T.
“We rose to the challenge and beat the champs,” said team captain Adalyn Hawk.
“We were a very cohesive team unit we all played really well all through the game.”
