It was the first goal Mamaroneck allowed all season.Ward Melville advances to the state final four, where it lost in the semis last season. Mamaroneck concludes with a 20-1 record.This is quite a shock. In my opinion, Mamaroneck was Section 1’s best teamall season and I thought was going to win its second state championship. Despite the loss, congratulations to Mamaroneck on a great season and thank you to senior captains Ellen Williams, Cathleen Smith and Charlotte Gardiner for speaking to me after the game. They could have said no, but were excellent just like they played all season.
