Williston came out of the gates on fire, scoring twice in the first six minutes on goals by Kathryn Tomaselli and Sam Fallon (assisted by Sarah Wilkie and Maddie Jerolman).<\/p>\n
Sydney Belinskas was outstanding in goal and turned Winchendon away at every opportunity. Williston brought a 2-0 lead into the second period. Tomaselli tallied her second of the day (assisted by Alex Starzyk) to give the Wildcats a three goal edge.<\/p>\n
In the third period, Williston poured it on and scored three more times. First Tomaselli completed a hat trick to put the ‘Cats up by four. That goal was followed quickly by a goal by Alex Starzyk (assist to Laura Aptowitz). Christina Zalewski then rounded out the scoring on a nice individual effort.<\/p>\n
Williston’s offensive outburst was impressive considering Winchendon had not allowed more than three goals in any game this year.<\/p>\n
