The Northbridge Rams girls’ lacrosse team dropped a tight 15–13 decision to the AMSA Eagles yesterday, extending their season-long search for consistency. Entering the contest 3–6, the Rams needed a victory to reverse their four-game skid, but fell victim to a high-scoring affair that featured skillful shooting by both squads. Northbridge’s offense showed potential, moving the ball crisply and finding open shooters in the crease. Their draw-control unit battled hard, and midfield transitions led to several early goals. On defense, the Rams made athletic slides and ground-ball wins, yet the Eagles’ persistent attack eventually outpaced them. Despite the disappointment, the team’s competitive spirit was evident, as they maintained pressure until the final whistle. Tomorrow at 4 PM, Northbridge returns home to face Marlborough, a program still seeking its first win. This matchup offers the Rams a prime opportunity to secure a victory and rebuild confidence. Focusing on clean clears, disciplined slides, and efficient offensive sets will be key to snapping the skid. Securing a win against Marlborough could reignite Northbridge’s push toward the fringe of playoff qualification.
