GIRLS HOCKEY(continued)

Meghan Guarino, Moscato and Emily Wood all had shots on goal but Woburn goalie Courtney Davis was able to deny all bids and thus the teams remained scoreless after one period.
Wakefield took an early penalty in the second half, thus giving Woburn a power play opportunity and its best chance to score.
“They’re a very dangerous team. They’re a good scoring team (and) they have talented, skilled players that are real dangerous and we kind of hung on through the power play. She (Miriam Wood) played an outstanding game. If we get good goaltending, good things can happen,” said Foley.
Woburn’s Bryana Harron had some shots on goal, as did Kayla Smith and Ashley Moran but Wood was able to stave off the flurry of shots.
Though no longer on a power play, Woburn was able to continue the momentum and get a goal from Smith to give Woburn a 1-0 lead.
Wakefield quickly regained the momentum with a goal from Doucette to tie the game at 1-1.
The Warriors  continued to pepper Davis with shots. Moscato, Doucette and Sam Morris all had shots stopped. Even with the benefit of a power play Wakefield couldn’t score despite more shots from Morris and Moscato. Wakefield was finally able to capitalize late in the second period. Morris scored to send Wakefield into the second intermission with a 2-1 lead.
“I can’t ask for anything more. They never stopped, never let up and they just kept skating and working hard,” noted Foley.
It was another strong start in the third period for Wakefield, Lauren Sullivan and Morris had shots on net but it was Doucette who gave Wakefield a 3-1 lead with her goal.
Wakefield continued to outshoot Woburn but Davis continued to deny its scoring bids.
With time running out, Woburn pulled its goalie for the extra skater and it paid off. Emily Lissner scored with 20 seconds remaining in the game to make it 3-2 but couldn’t tally the game-tying goal.
“It was a good effort across the board, front to back. Everybody worked hard and you could see girls putting out a little more effort to dig in the corners, to get first shots, to make the passes and work hard in the defensive end. (It was) Kind of a complete team effort today,” said Foley.
