HOW IT HAPPENED: 

  • The Rams jumped out to an early 1-0 lead when Brandi Core (Medway) connected on a pass from Guenard in the second minute.  
  • About five minutes later the Lancers answered when Madison Avilla (Westport) tallied a goal after collecting a loose ball in front of the net.  
  • The Rams controlled most of the second quarter scoring twice and holding a 4-0 advantage in shots. First in the 22nd minute Angelina Serra (Chelmsford) scored after a nice give-and-go play with Isabella Kondi (Canaan, NH). A few moments later a Rams player sent in a long strike from well outside the arc, Guenard tipped it to Core who popped it up to herself in front of the net and swatted it home to take a 3-1 advantage into the half.
