Cape earns revenge, captures 14th state title

CAMDEN, Del. – Cape Henlopen girls lacrosse reclaimed their place as state champions Thursday evening at Caesar Rodney High School. The Vikings defeated Tatnall, 12-8, earning their 14th championship in the past 15 seasons.

After Tatnall scored the opening goal, the Vikings reeled off six of the next seven tallies.

The Vikings went into halftime with a slim two goal advantage, but quickly took a commanding six-goal lead in the third.

The senior leaders, Lindsay D’Ambrogi and Louise Rishko, each collected a hat trick for Cape.

Four of the Vikings’ stars of tomorrow also scored. Sophomore Claire Lopez had two goals and an assist, and freshmen Haley Gamuciello (two), Ally Diehl, and Mairead Rishko each scored as well.
