LYNDON - Lyndon Institute hosted undefeated Rice Memorial on Wednesday for their last home game of the season.

Both teams started strong in the first half, displaying solid stick handling and ball movement. The teams played a scoreless draw in the first half.

In the second half, Emily Boucher, put in the first goal for Rice. Catching Lyndon on their heels, Kelly St. Marie scored another goal for Rice, making the score two to zero.

Lyndon goalie, Sarah Camber, made some good stops throughout the game, but could not hold off the number two seed Rice Memorial. The final score, three to zero.

Head Coach, Roxanne Courser, was pleased with the attitude of her Lyndon team.

"They know they played a good half and the second half, they know they didn't play quite as well. ...This is a group of girls who will bounce right back and play really hard tomorrow night," Courser said.

Lyndon Institute has two games before the division three varsity playoffs, starting tomorrow night at North Country.
