(CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.) – Seven different players scored as Wilson easily handled Keystone in a convincing win to open up United East play on Saturday afternoon. It was an extra special day as the Phoenix honored seniors
Kalea Pechart (Dalmatia, Pa. / Line Mountain) and
Karen Cutler (Camp Hill, Pa. / Camp Hill) prior to the game. The duo went on to combine for three goals in the victory over the Giants.

How It Happened
- The Blue and White wasted no time going on the attack and saw Madison Sokolowski (Felton, Pa. / Red Lion) connect with Shaylee McGlinchey (New Market, Md. / Oakdale) just 71 seconds into the game for a quick lead. The duo then reversed roles for another goal just two minutes later. Pechart was the next Phoenix to find the back of the net with a goal in the seventh minute on an assist from Ashlynn Simmons (Gerrardstown, W.Va. / Musselman). Simmons was just getting warmed up and scored in the 10th minute for a 4-0 lead.
- Simmons went on to add two more goals to record the hat trick. Sandwiched between those was a score by Cutler with a Simmons assist. That left Wilson with an 8-0 lead at the half.
- It was more of the same for the Phoenix in the second half as they added two more goals. Claire Thompson (FY, Harrisburg, Pa. / Central Dauphin) and Brynn Spangenberger (Jr., Chester Springs, Pa. / Owen J. Roberts) did the honors with McGlinchey providing the helpers on both to set up the final score.
