Granby Starts Strong, Tops Generals

GRANBY, Mass. – Brenna Moreno scored four goals Saturday to lead the Granby girls lacrosse team to an 11-6 win over Pittsfield.

 

The Rams got off to a hot start with a pair of goals in the first two minutes of the game and led by as many as six in the first quarter.

 

Eliza Mullen (two goals) scored just before the end of the quarter to get the Generals on the board.

 

“Despite our habitual slow start, we managed to fight our way back into the game,” Pittsfield coach Kim Madden said. “By the third quarter it was 9-6. Our goaltending and strong defense kept the game close. But Granby scored the next two at the start of the fourth.

 

“I’m very pleased with our team effort today.”

 

Julianna Kastrinakas matched Mullen with a pair of goals. Britain Sadowy and Ella Kroboth each finished with a goal and an assist.

 

Hannah Kickery stopped 11 shots in the Pittsfield net.

 

The Generals (0-4) host Monson on Monday.
