Five takeaways from Maine’s girls lacrosse playoff matchups

Kennebunk leads a deep field in Class A; several teams are capable of playing the role of spoiler.

The Falmouth Navigators are still on top, but there’s a lot of movement behind them in this week’s rankings.

A couple big wins propel the 6-4 Rams into the the top 10.

Falmouth, Yarmouth and Thornton still the top 3, and South Portland climbs up a couple more rungs.

Yarmouth’s Andre Violette, seeded sixth, is the lone player outside the top four to make it to the semifinals.

Junior goalie Molly Vickers comes up big in the second half, helping the Clippers prevail in a rematch of last year’s Class A championship game.

Two freshmen and four sophomores comprise the list of players who should play key roles on competitive teams.

The defending champion Falmouth boys and girls are in good position to repeat, while other perennial powers are strong again.

One of these squads returns potentially historic talent.

These players should be among the best in the southern part of the state this spring.
