T.C. Williams Girls Lacrosse Team Loses To West Springfield 13-10 In Playoffs
The visiting T.C. Williams girls’ lacrosse team almost pulled off a huge playoff upset Friday night, May 6, but fell short against their Patriot District rivals at West Springfield 13-10. The Lady Titans let West Springfield jump out early in the first half to a 4-0 lead and it was 7-3 at halftime. In the second half T. C. Williams started to patiently whittle away their opponent’s lead due to harder offensive pressure, much better defense, and improved ball control off the draw. After the score became tied 10-10 in the second half, West Springfield managed to get three late goals that were fired from point-blank range almost right on the crease. Ultimately, those early first-half goals and being behind 7-1 fairly early were critical factors that the Lady Titans were not able to overcome. The Lady Titans (5-7) previously lost 18-5 to West Springfield on April 6 during the regular season.
