Pioneers - 13
Nazareth Academy - 8

On a sunny clear Monday afternoon we played non league opponent Nazareth Academy on their beautiful grass field on their senior day! Pioneers knew they were coming for a battle as they honored their ten seniors today, Pioneers were up for the challenge and played extremely well as a team and won thirteen to eight.

Pioneers were led by Olivia Zaskoda with five goals, Kenzie Derstine with four goals, Abby Mellinger with two goals and two assists, Jenna Detweiler with one goal and Tess Bergey with one goal and two assists. Aubrey Clemmer added a shot on goal.

Incredible saves by Haley Harper with eighteen saves on the day and made huge clutch saves in times under great pressure and made it look easy. Pioneers had ten draw possessions and fifteen ground ball pick ups and Nazareth Academy had twelve draw possessions and seventeen ground ball pick ups and Nazareth goalie made five saves.

Amazing defensive inceptions by Clara Gomez-Martin who came up big in the game by intercepting two balls on Nazareth offensive breakaways. Great defense again by Megan Wenzel, Olivia Veltre, and Amanda Moyer.

Pioneers are continuing to move up the ladder for rankings in AA lacrosse as we look to district playoffs and wanting to finish strong these last two games to secure a spot. We are thriving and achieving great things that show in our games and we continue to work at reaching our team goals. One player is no more important than another but together we can achieve anything!

Pioneers next game is away at Sacred Heart Academy on Wednesday @ 3:45pm

Dock Record - 9-6 overall - 2-3 in BAL League
