The game was hard edged and hard played, but in the end, Montclair High School edged past the Verona High School girls lacrosse team for a 17-15 win on Centennial Field.
As has been the case all season, scoring was spread across the Hillbilly offense–and across grades. Lauren Ednie, a junior, led Verona with four goals and three assists, while sophomores Jackie Brozyna and Emilia Frizzi had three apiece for Verona. Brozyna also had two assists. Julia Albert was the lead scorer for Montclair with four goals.
