SARANAC LAKE — The Saranac Lake Placid girls hockey team suffered a 4-3 loss to East Green Wave on Friday afternoon at the Saranac Lake Civic Center.
Four different players from East Green Wave scored on Friday, with Mickey Moreno, Lily Brickman, Caroline Gould and Ali Greco each finding the back of the net. Moreno and Lila To added assists for East Green Wave, which avenged a 4-2 loss to SLP earlier in the season.
Addison Colby scored twice for SLP and added an assist. Meanwhile, Harper Strack also scored for SLP, which dropped to 7-8-1 overall. Stephanie Kilbourne-Hill, Marissa Reardon and Kayla Harvey chipped in with assists.
East Green Wave jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period as Moreno scored on her team’s first shot of the game, before Brickman netted a shot late in the opening period.
Gould extended East Green Wave’s lead to 3-0 when she netted a five-hole goal in the second period, shortly after killing off a penalty.

SLP got its first goal less than three minutes into the third period when Colby buried a shot, following assists from Kilbourne-Hill and Reardon.
Around the halfway point of the third, Greco pushed East Green Wave’s lead back up to three; however, SLP responded as Strack netted a shot past the East Green Wave’s goalie, Liv Johnston, at 6:28 in the third.
Trailing by two, SLP nearly pulled off the comeback as Colby scored her second of the game on a pass from Harvey with 46.4 seconds left, but the team was unable to score another in the final seconds.
SLP’s Maddy Clark, who typically plays defense but filled in as the netminder due to an injury, had 17 saves. Johnston had 29 saves.
The SLP girls are slated to have a week off before closing out the regular season with back-to-back road games. The team will take on the Massena Raiders at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 3, and the Canton Golden Bears at 5 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 5.
