Woodberry Forest and Bishop O’Connell had to scramble and head over to Georgetown University to get their game in Tuesday, but once the Tigers got there, they got comfortable fast and in turn rolled 17-6 over O’Connell.
Woodberry poured in three goals in the first 90 seconds, with Carlson Milikin, Mark Monroe and Tripp Grant stringing the early trio together. O’Connell tried to stem the bleeding with a timeout, but Woodberry’s David Little and Zach Hollander kept it going. By the end of the first quarter, Woodberry was up 9-1 with Will Tucker, Little, Monroe and Spencer Brewer finishing off that incredible start.
Woodberry didn’t even slow down after that with the defense locking up O’Connell to the tune of a 13-1 halftime lead. Ben Pugh made four solid saves before the break, including a shot from point blank range. Dow Perkins won seven of his 11 faceoffs on the day.
Monroe finished with four goals while Tucker also notched a hat trick with three. Milikin added another goal to give him two on the night. Joe Miller dished out three assists to lead the Tigers. Tucker rounded out a five-point game with two helpers.
