Brooke Lomasney (7 goals, 2 assists) scored the winning goal with eight seconds remaining in an action-packed ending – to say the least.
“We went goal for goal,” said Peabody coach Michelle Roach. “They pulled ahead, 14-13, then Madi Barrett (3 goals) got the equalizer.”
Caitlin Snow (10 saves) picked up the 400th of her career. Ally Bettencourt ripped a hat trick, while Connie Patturelli and Leah Bresnahan also found the back of the net.
“Also exceptional on defense was our foursome of Kayla Landry, Maia Davis, Addy Merrill, and Patturelli,” Roach said.
