Bethel Lacrosse Lady Wildcats Lose a Heartbreaker to Joel Barlow 11-10 in Overtime
The Bethel Lady Wildcats came up short in a back and forth contest which had to be settled in overtime. After trailing at halftime 6-4, Bethel began to mount their comeback with three unanswered goals to take the lead 7-6. Behind Stephanie Hirst’s 6 goal performance, Bethel exchanged goals and took a slim 10-9 lead into the final two minutes of the game. However, Joel Barlow’s defense forced a turnover and after a wild, four shot, scramble in front of Bethel’s goalie Stephanie Forese, Joel Barlow scored the tying goal with 8 seconds to play.
The overtime sessions were no different than regulation as both teams had chances to notch the game winner. Joel Barlow scored late in the second overtime session and was able to outlast Bethel’s last ditch scoring drive to win the contest.
Third year Head Coach Shelly DeSisto was pleased with the effort the girls gave and felt Bethel sent a message to the rest of the league. “It’s tough when you lose a tight game like this because it wasn’t from lack of intensity or effort” commented DeSisto. “Sometimes the ball bounces in your favor and sometimes it doesn’t. What’s important now is that we prepare for two other SWC games this week against Brookfield and New Fairfield”.
Bethel Scoring:
Stephanie Hirst 6 goals
Serina Ghio 2 goals 1 assist
Anna Fiorini 1 goal
Brooke Ferraro 1 goal
Goalie, Stephanie Forese 15 saves
On a special note, Bethel will be honoring their seniors this Thursday, May 10th after their game with Brookfield at 5:00. The day long festivities begin with a junior varsity game on Rockwell Field at 3:30 following by the varsity at 5:00. After the varsity game, the senior girls and boys will be recognized in a joint ceremony before the start of the boy’s game against New Fairfield.
