The Shoremen improve to 4-0 on the season with the win, while the Generals slipped to 2-2 with the loss.
Sophomore attackman Chris Read (Baltimore, MD/Boys Latin) gave Washington a quick 1-0 lead with a goal off an assist from junior attackman Kevin Nolan (Clark, NJ/A.L. Johnson) just 40 seconds into the game. The Generals evened the score when Harry St. John scored with 8:49 remaining in the first quarter. Read put the Shoremen back in front with a goal with 7:24 left in the period, but Jim Ryan pulled W&L even with a goal with 5:14 to go in the quarter.
Washington senior defenseman Tim Kerr (Pasadena, MD/Mount St. Joseph) scored in transition with 9:47 to play in the second quarter and senior attackman Sam Lane (Fairfield, CT/Fairfield) scored an extra-man goal off an assist from freshman midfielder Casey O'Connor (Crownsville, MD/Archbishop Spalding) with 5:11 on the clock to give the Shoremen a 4-2 lead. St. John scored off an assist from Ned Rider with 25 seconds left in the half to trim the lead to 4-3, but junior midfielder Andrew Ostrusky (Severna Park, MD/Severna Park/Bridgton, ME) answered for the Shoremen with a goal with just six seconds remaining in the period to make it 5-3.
W&L got back within one goal as Tyler Lenczuk opened the third-quarter scoring with a goal off an assist from Matt Arcati with 11:03 left in the quarter. Washington then went its three-goal run to take an 8-4 lead after three quarters of play. Nolan opened the run with a goal with 8:10 on the clock, Lane scored off an assist from sophomore midfielder Andrew Generazio (Springfield, VA/West Springfield/Bridgton, ME) with 4:43 remaining in the period, and Ostrusky scored with 1:33 to go in the third quarter.
The Generals tried to mount a rally in the fourth quarter as Ryan scored with 8:54 to play and Rider scored off an assist from Tim Skeen with 3:44 remaining to bring W&L back within two goals, but the Shoremen held on for the win.

Washington senior goalie Kevin Thibadeau (Cheshire, CT/Avon Old Farms) made 15 saves in the win. Chris Lalli made 14 stops in the loss for W&L.
W&L held a 40-33 advantage in shots in the game. Both teams finished with 34 ground balls; Lalli led the Generals with a game-high nine ground balls, while Kerr scooped up a team-high six ground balls for the Shoremen. Washington held a 10-8 advantage in face-offs.
