SCAA Colts Take Two, Unbeaten Regular Season in Sights

Two games, two wins, one Southeast Division Championship. The SCAA Colts 5/6 B Girls Lacrosse team had a doubleheader last weekend and needed to win both if they wanted to keep their unbeaten season alive and clinch their division. They did both.

The first win came against an undermanned Prince William squad, 14-2. With a large early lead and second game coming afterwards, the coaches substituted liberally and saw little drop-off in performance.

Leading the scoring charge were Hannah Balow with three goals, Grace MacDonald with two and one each for Cassidy Donaghy, Maddie Heilbrun, Rachel Robinson, Keighan Speer, Hannah Ross, Emily Sullivan, Izzy English and A.J. Vinger.

The second game was another matter, as the Colts took on a previously unbeaten Fort Hunt team. After a one-hour rain delay, SCAA jumped out to a quick start en route to a 10-5 win.

According to the coaching staff, defense was the difference, particularly Diana Logue, Haley Denehy, Jessica Mullany, and Maddie Heilbrun. They kept a powerful Fort Hunt team in check, one that had averaged 12 goals a game. held an offensive unit that was averaging 12 goals a game to only 5 goals.  

Hannah Balow wa unstoppable on offense, scoring five goals while Hannah Ross, Jessica Ross, Keighan Speer, Kristin Rabil, and AJ Vinger had one each.

The girls are one of only two undefeated teams in the age division 5/6B.  The final game in the regular season is away at Stafford this weekend. The playoffs begin after Memorial Day weekend.
