Pretty easy mileage, the Wolves won a Katrina Gallagher on the ride PHOTOS: RICH MONETTI
convincing 14-2 victory, but Coach Jess
McDonough was proud her girls didn’t Meghan Condon (4) on the rise
just cruise to the nish line.

“We saw a lot of great hustle play. ey
played together as a team,” she said. “Ev-
erybody contributed.”

e Wolves didn’t wait long to get
started, either. Kate Mercer took the face-
o , Mia Puccio came down with the ball
and hurried the play back to Mercer. e
mid elder let loose, and John Jay had a
1-0 lead only 14 seconds into the game.

e face-o going the other way next,
a Brewster turnover got John Jay on the
ball for the second goal. After Caroline
Panzirer dropped a pass out front, she
gathered herself and backtracked. e de-
fense following, the mid elder hit Shan-
non Nolan on the right, and the lead was
two at 22:54.

Far from done, defense led the way
again. Meghan Condon made the strip
in the John Jay zone, got the ball ahead,
and the chase led to Panzirer scoring on
the penalty.

Up 3-0 with 18:47 left in the half,
Mercer won another in the middle of the

eld, and there was nothing serendipitous
in the way the ball was landing.

“We try to make the face-o about the
team. So, we really work together. We
communicate the entire time,” Mercer
said. “We have motion. We have set plays
and just try to be smart.”

So, up the eld, Nolan took over the
learning curve, and on the receiving end
of goal number four, Panzirer was grate-
ful for her teammate’s knowledge base.
“Shannon is amazing. She has the best la-
crosse IQ,” Panzirer said. “She knows ex-
actly where everybody is going to be, and
it’s really special to see someone commu-
nicate with everyone on a level like that.”

Brewster, on the other hand, would
have needed ESP to sustain an o ense
against John Jay’s tough defensive play.
“We really work on our ride, and it’s a
whole team e ort,” McDonough said.

Katrina Gallagher agreed. “You can’t
play defense by yourself,” Gallagher said,
and takes pride in a team that plays ag-
gressive but not dirty.

So, on the defensive harry, the Wolves
forced another strip, and Panzirer was
again o to the races. She went the length
of the eld, and despite this solo e ort on
the third of her ve goals, Panzirer rev-
eled in the team e ort. Playing together
as a unit, she said, “ at’s one of our main
goals. So, it’s good to see us execute and
play together as a family.”

e rest came pretty easily, and the
Wolves now stand at 5-1 overall.
