CONY 6 BRUNSWICK 0
Delaney Keithley scored two goals and assisted on one as the visiting Rams picked up a Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference win over 0-2-1 Brunswick, which visits Oxford Hills on Thursday at 6 p.m.
Brunswick goaltender Jordan Van Savage played well between the pipes, turning aside 27 shots. The Dragons struggled to cross midfield, putting three shots on goal.
“We need to work on execution for shots on goal and marking up defensively in the circle,” said Brunswick coach Karin Paquin. “We started to find our rhythm towards the end of the first half. We just need to spend more on focussing on playing our game and not trying to play the other teams game.”
Cony improved to 2-1.
