Cape’s Senior Night girls’ lacrosse game at Champions Stadium April 30 versus the undefeated Sussex Academy Seahawks featured dramatically changing skies and a squall line that brought wind but little rain.
The “Double E” roared up and down the field for Cape, from the midfield draw circle to picking ground balls and scoring goals, as Emily Monigle and Ella Rishko combined for 11 goals and three assists in a get-ahead, stay-ahead 17-10 victory.

Cape girls lacrosse travelled across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge April 10 in search of a big game, and they found one, playing St. Mary’s of Annapolis from the tough MIAA league. The Saints had lost to McDonogh, the nation’s top-ranked team, 14-9 the day before.
The turf was hot, clouds were sparse; the Vikings wore masks, the Saints did not.
Cape jumped the Saints early, leading 3-0 on goals by Kelly Bragg, Emily Monigle and Ella Rishko. Bragg went down early with a twisted ankle and did not return. The first half was back and forth, with St. Mary’s leading 7-5 at the intermission.

The Cape girls’ lacrosse team won 11 straight state championships and were hunting for No. 12 last spring when COVID-19 shut down the season. Seven seniors including Talbot Buck, Anna Stancofski, Delaney Zolper, Meredith Lockwood, Sawyer Walker, Lola Messick and Lee Lee Wilson missed out on another state title, Senior Night and high school graduation.
“It was just awful, especially for the seniors,” said coach Lindsey Underwood, who had guided Cape to three state championships since taking over from the Zen Master P.J. Kesmodel.
