Greene 6, Windsor 1
GREENE – Greene moved a step closer to finishing the regular season unbeaten scoring five times in the opening half in Wednesday’s convincing win over Windsor.
Emily Gascon scored three minutes into the contest after passes from Emma Anderson and Jahna Driscoll. Driscoll along with Emily Conroe had two goals apiece in the victory, and Paige Castle added a goal.
“I liked the team that showed up today,” said Greene coach Sue Carlin. “Our goal was to score in the first five minutes, and we were able to do that. We played and passed so much better today.”
Carlin worked in her entire bench by the end of the first half, and came away impressed with the defensive play of Erin Funnell, who made multiple block/tackles.
Greene hosts Sidney today.
