Framingham finishes the season with an impressive 15-4-5 record, under head coach Paul Spear.

Marshfield scored just minutes into the game on a pass from the Flyers left wing corner in front which was one-timed into the net for a 1-0 Marshfield lead.

Marshfield wasn’t done, scoring quickly again.

Marshfield extended that lead with 8:00 minutes left in the first period on a shot from the left point. The first period ended 3-0.

The Flyers didn’t quit, generating a number of shots and quality scoring opportunities throughout the middle period.
