All right, welcome everybody to tonight's match up for the East Longmeadow Spartans as they play host to the Longmeadow Lancers. East Longmeadow went 16 and 6 last year losing to Walpole in the Elite Eight. East Longmeadow outscored their opponents 310 to 186 going 8 and 0 in league play winning back-to-back Western Mass titles. East Longmeadow has a new head coach in Brian Calendar Crucio, Coach Cal, sorry if I butch butchered your name. After Coach Moses coaching up at UMass now and Coach Mazza took the program to 63 and 20 record outscoring their opponents 1,247 goals, 15 per game to 708, 8 and 1/2 goals per game. They had two final four appearances and winning the Western Mass title three out of the last four years. Last year's graduating class is the main reason for their success as they saw eight seniors and which six of them going on to play at the collegiate level.
They were led by Jenna Marino going to UMass, Grace Howard going to Saint Anselm, Jenna Hallie fairly Dickinson, Caroline Lukesic going to Connecticut College, your leading scorer Addie Jordan with 103 goals going to Davidson and Miana Calabrese going to Springfield College. This year's commits continue as East Longmeadow has Super Seven Mack Whitwer committed to Villanova. She scored 72 goals last year. Sam Hunt going to Clark, Mary Devoe going to UMass Boston and the other captain Sabina McKnighty will be joining Calabrese at Springfield College. Looks like Mack Whitwer will be up on the draw versus Henson. And we're about to start off the 2020 season. Referee gets the ball ready. The ball is up. Ball bouncing around. It's loose and Henson comes up with the ball. As she looks to be getting the ball over the restraining line. She gets the ball to Canana. They get the ball in, turn around, take a shot.

I think she's going to UConn. And the other one was Super Seven Molly Henson scoring 47 goals. She's going to Bates. And it looks like Henson's getting her shot as an 8 meter and Julia Gray will get her first chance to stop an 8 meter on the season. Longmeadow up on the up on the board first as Henson gets gets a goal to continue her scoring over the last few years. East Longmeadow's 2 and 27 all time against Longmeadow last year. Longmeadow went 8 and 13 scoring 210 goals and giving up 208. As much as I'd love to see Longmeadow not doing good, they only played five games against the Western Mass teams beating Westside 17 to 3, Minnechaug 17 to 3, Minnechaug 16 to 3 and splitting series against East Longmeadow 8 and 7.
And for then they beat East Longmeadow 14 to 7. So Longmeadow dominated the Western Mass landscape last year playing the toughest toughest schedule in Western Mass. Therefore not having that uh winning record last year. Worder up on the draw with Mack Whitwer. This is a false start. Mack Whitwer gets the ball, quickly goes over restraining line. East Longmeadow's really going to have to watch those passes, try not to force anything in. As McKnighty gets knocked down, loses possession. Longmeadow quickly making pace up the field and that's Conway. Good job by Jenna Byron to slow her down. As they kick the ball back to Sluwick and she's all by herself. And she gets one past Julia Gray. East Longmeadow's really going to Every possession's really going to make a difference down on the offensive uh offensive zone. It's not going to be like last year where East Longmeadow was a scoring powerhouse.
This year be a little bit tougher. They still have Mack Whitwer scoring all those goals last year and rely heavily on her. Worder and Whitwer up on the draw. The draw goes all the way over. Looks like Hannah Eddy was there. Ava Pellegrino picks the ball up. She's looking to make some room. She gets quadruple teamed, comes away with a good job by the freshman to get the ball up and over.

Gets it over to Pellegrino. >> [crying] >> It's like I put my head down for a second. Longmeadow comes up with the ball. As Henson's running up the field, gets the ball over and that's a goal by Anderson. Last year Longmeadow lost three key players in defenseman Molly Hornet going to Villanova, Piper Watson going to Skidmore and Samantha Goodrich scoring 76 goals going to Holy Cross.
They did however reload with six new commits. As I said earlier, Super Seven Molly Henson scoring to Bates, the other Super Seven Kerry Conway scoring 39 goals last year is going to UConn. Along with other seniors Kate Worder going to Babson, Cordella Michalik going to South Virginia, Vivian Rice going to Skidmore and Nora Vanderhoof going to Saint Anselm. Ball's up.

It's Gray's second or third save already. Henson with the ball kicks the ball behind the net. Over to Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald around. Low metal working the ball all the way around comes up on top. Kicks it into Henson and Henson fires a shot by it. Spartans are going to have to look to really pick up those cutters in the game.

Mack Whitwer taking a draw along with Sabina McKechnie. And Conway comes away with it. Gianna Byron gets it as it gets knocked away. Conner has it gets the ball around the back of the net. Kicks the ball over to Henson. Believe that was Chloe Anderson scores her second goal of the game. Low metal quickly up seven nothing. Now, Spartans will go to film later on after this game and go over defensive schemes with what they'll have to pick up, who will have to pick up, how they watch the cutters.
So, it's learning experience as the Spartans have a young team. Have a couple of seniors. But after losing that group that class of girls last year, they're in a rebuilding stage, I would say. Anderson gets the ball over to Conway. Lancers looking to pass the ball behind the net. Kicks the ball over to Anderson. Conway with the ball. Gets it over to Henson.

Pellegrino going up against Worder. And that's good job by the freshman to get the ball over to Mack Whitwer. As Mack Whitwer gets the ball over the restraining line.
You can see him clear out and give Mack a go at it. McKechnie over to Whitwer. Whitwer does a dodge goes by her. Whitwer getting herself some shooting space. That's more like it. As after nearly eight minutes into the game, the Spartans looks like they'll finally get their first shot on net. Mack Whitwer getting herself an eight meter. Mack Whitwer runs it in.

Peltier to I don't know who that was. Los Alamitos quickly gets the ball up. Green with the ball. Hits the cutter and Conway. Cutter Conway all by herself and tough for Julia De Gradey to get that on a one-on-one with Kerry Conway. It's Conway's second goal of the game. Lancers now have four girls in double digits as Los Alamitos is taking a nine-to-nothing lead. >> [snorts] >> Pellegrino back up on the draw. Same spot as last time. That's two times in a row. Good hustle by Mack Whitmer to come up with that.
Let's go Macky. Macky in and out making it look easy. Goes around the X. She keeps the ball. It looks like Henson's marking her up. Over to Pellegrino. Pellegrino over to McKenney. And McKenney will get herself an eight-meter attempt. McKenney eight-meter attempt. 24 seconds left in the first quarter. McKenney goes low. McKenney scores a goal. Spartans finally up on the board. Stop the bleeding. With 21 seconds left in the in the first quarter, the Spartans are finally on the board by a goal with by Sabina McKenney cutting the Lancers lead down to eight. Good news is the last four minutes the Spartans have been playing better, passing better. Hopefully they can continue to keep that up. I think a lot has to do with the draw with Ava Pellegrino up on the draw getting the ball to Mack Whitmer and good things are happening. Pellegrino two times in a row has pushed the ball to this one spot.
See if she continues to do it. Werder looks like she's saying go to your left. I'll take that one-on-one with Mack Whitmer any day of the week. Mack getting speed and oh. Looks like a no false start on both of them. 18 seconds left in the first quarter. Lancers up nine to one. Ball goes up. Oh, good a good job by Conway to grab that. She's looking to get a shot off.
