Broadneck held Maddie Doan to one goal in defeating Sherwood for the Class 4A/3A state championship.

CATONSVILLE, Md – The Sherwood High School girls lacrosse team held its own against heavily-favored Broadneck through the first six minutes of the MPSSAA Class 4A/3A Championship Game at UMBC Stadium on Wednesday. The Warriors stood tied with the Bruins on the strength of early goals by Taylor Polhemus and Kristen Lauda, and the possibility of a tightly-contested title game seemed very real.

It didn’t last.

Broadneck scored 12 unanswered goals in a span of 14 minutes on its way to a 15-3 halftime lead, then cruised through the second half to capture a 21-5 win and the third state championship in team history.
