Coming off an 18-10 bounce-back win over Holliston on May 15, the Dover-Sherborn Regional High School girls varsity lacrosse team hosted Dedham on Monday afternoon looking to make it two straight wins.

Despite a lengthy lightning delay late in the first half, DS was able to battle through the wet elements to a convincing 18-8 victory to move to 12-3 (7-2 TVL) on the year.

Amelia Novitch struck just 56 seconds in to claim the early 1-0 lead for DS. Dedham responded with a goal to even the game at one, but Annie Parizeau fought right back with a goal off transition to reclaim the lead for the Raiders at 2-1 with 16:10 to play in the half. Dedham evened the game at two followed by a strike from Kate Mastrobuono to give DS back the lead at 3-2 with 8:23 remaining. Dedham evened the game back at three with a goal on a free position, followed up by the lightning delay with 7:23 to play.

After the pause in action, DS responded with a pair from Parizeau and Mastrobuono to claim a 5-3 lead. Dedham cut the deficit to 5-4 but a 3-0 to finish the half by DS with goals coming from Parizeau (two) and Mastrobuono as the Raiders took an 8-4 lead into half.

Following a shortened halftime break, DS continued to pour it on with three straight goals coming from Novitch (two) and Parizeau to extend their lead to seven at 11-4. Dedham scored two straight to make it an 11-6 game, but DS would put the nail in the coffin with a 7-2 run to close out the game and emerge with the 18-8 victory.

The Lady-Raiders will return to action against rival Hopkinton on May 28.
