CENTRAL NEW YORK – Having split its first four games of the season, the Cazenovia girls lacrosse team would climb above the .500 mark thanks to a pair of lopsided victories.
The Lakers netted 14 goals in the first half of Tuesday’s game against Mexico at Cazenovia College’s Christakos Field, eventually putting away the Tigers 18-4.
Madison DeAngelis led the way thanks to her five goals and three assists. Charlie Prior scored three times, with Maren Smith getting two goals and two assists.
Megan Kuhn landed a goal and four assists as Katie Rajkowski, Hadley Schug and Riley Knapp joined Smith in the two-goal column. Julia Reff contributed an assist.
It was much the same at Mexico two days later, the Lakers steadily gaining control and by a 14-6 margin, handling the Buccaneers and improving its record to 4-2.
Nine different Cazenovia players got on the board, with Smith as the anchor thanks to her five assists to go with a pair of goals.
DeAngelis scored three times, with Rajkowski and Dali Dennison also finding the net twice. Kuhn put up one goal and two assists, with Prior, Schug, Reff and Cailtlyn Smithers also finding the net.
Two big Onondaga High School League road games loom next week for Cazenovia, who would travel to Marcellus on Tuesday and Westhill on Thursday night.
