MANCHESTER, N.H. — Londonderry coach Bob Slater's decision to make Josie Bezeredy an attack this spring certainly was a good one.

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Pinkerton’s Vicki Kuhn had been in a little bit of a scoring drought entering the playoffs.She failed to score a goal in her final three regular season games. That was the longest stretch she had gone without scoring all spring.

No. 1 Londonderry did not allow a single shot on goal, downing No. 8 Nashua North 18-0 in the Division 1 quarterfinals. Jenny Thompson scored four goals while Josie Bezeredy and Marcie Marino each tallied hat tricks for the Lancers.

Londonderry's seniors got plenty of action and scored lots of goals in an 18-3 girls lacrosse romp over Souhegan oin Senior Day. Led by four goals each by Dana Boyle and Marcie Marino, eight different players scored for the unbeaten Lancers (15-0), who scored 44 goals in their last two games.

Londonderry girls lacrosse posted a rare shutout, beating Manchester Memorial, 19-0. The Lancers defense allowed only two shots. Marcie Marino, Jenny Thompson and Haley Skov each scored three goals.

Whether it was the long bus ride, the prom looming the next night or a Concord squad ripe for a battle, Londonderry was struggling. Keeping their composure and holding onto a slim lead, the Lancers survived, 10-8, to remain unbeaten at 8-0 and preserve a 28-game winning streak in the state including playoffs. Dana Boyle scored five goals and an assist in the victory.

Winning now while planning ahead seems to be working for Londonderry. All 20 of its field players saw equal time in an 18-3 victory over Salem while three goaltenders helmed the Astro net.

Preparing for a big early season matchup with Pinkerton Friday, Londonderry easily handled Manchester Central, 18-1. All 23 players earned valuable game experience as Dana Boyle and McKenzie Schliecher paced the Lancers offense with four goals apiece.
