The Lady Dragons made up for an early season tie (2-2) with Falmouth by scoring early and often to record a 6-1 win over the Clippers on Saturday afternoon at The Bog.

The victory qualifies Duxbury for postseason play with a 10-2-1 and seven games left in the regular-season schedule.

The story of the night was the play of Duxbury’s first line of senior captain Meg Muncey, junior Kaitlin Sullivan, and sophomore Brianna Connolly, who dominated play and accounted for all six Duxbury goals.

Sullivan scored the first of her two goals less than four minutes into the game when Connolly rushed into the zone and fired on net, only to have the rebound come back out to Sullivan, who poked it past Falmouth goaltender Mariama Hesek for a 1-0 lead.

Just over two minutes later Muncey notched the first goal of her hat-trick night when her line kept the puck in the offensive zone for several shots on net. Muncey was perfectly positioned to knock home the rebound of a Connolly shot for a 2-0 lead.

Falmouth was cracking early under the Duxbury pressure, as Clipper star Shalyn Callahan went off for elbowing at the eight-minute mark.

The lead grew to 3-0 with 5:33 left in the period, as Sullivan once again picked up a loose puck after a Hesek save, and promptly put it past the beleaguered netminder.

Falmouth got its first serious scoring bid a couple of minutes into the second period, as Devon Seibt broke in from her left wing slot, but couldn’t beat Duxbury netminder Julia Hannon.

Despite a Duxbury power-play, the Clippers kept the score close until midway through the period when Muncey tallied her second goal of the night for a commanding 4-0 lead with 6:17 showing on the clock.

The goal sent Hesek to the bench, and Molly Copeland got the call in hopes of stopping the bleeding.

She experienced much the same as her teammate did, as Duxbury’s first line was relentless in the Falmouth end. After Sullivan stormed into the offensive zone and fired a shot on net, Copeland left a rebound and Muncey poked it inside the right post for a 5-0 lead and her third goal of the afternoon.

Duxbury’s final goal of the night was a thing of beauty, as Sullivan sent a pass to Connolly in the slot, where she deflected it toward the far post, eluding Copeland for an insurmountable 6-0 lead with a minute left in the middle stanza.

Despite back-to-back power-play opportunities early in the third, the Clippers couldn’t put one past Hannon until 1:12 remained in the game, when Brenna Callahan split the Duxbury defense and went in alone on Hannon and picked the top right corner to ruin her shutout bid.

“They had one player (Shalyn Callahan) we had to focus on and we did a good job of eliminating her right away,” said Duxbury Coach Friend Weiler. “We haven’t been finishing lately, but this week we worked on going to the net hard and keeping the feet moving, and tonight they hit the ground running. I’ve been telling them they can skate with anyone when they bring their ‘A’ game and they did tonight.”

After Wednesday night’s game with Barnstable on the Cape, the girls will return home on Saturday afternoon to entertain Martha’s Vineyard at The Bog at 3:20 p.m.
