June 28, 2021

The Eastern Shore Lacrosse Club 2027 team coached by John Rishko and Ashley Diehl went undefeated 5-0 over two days to win the championship at the Beach Blast Lacrosse Tournament held at Cape Henlopen High School. The team comprises players entering sixth and seventh grades. 

“They were the biggest surprise of all the groups,” said Tournament Director Sue Murphy. “What I’m seeing is younger athletes who can really play the game. That speaks to feeder programs with solid coaching.”

The 2027 squad beat the Jets 13-4 and Dark Horse 16-5 June 25, then won three games June 26 over Cavalier Lax 8-7, Pride 15-6 and Integrity in the championship game 4-3. The Eastern Shore 2025/26 team was 2-1-1 over two days of the tournament, but didn't make the championship game. That group has two full squads of players that they alternated in games to give equal time to each lineup.   

The 2025/26 group was coached by Lindsey Underwood and Jack Frederick. Team members are Emily Bisaha, Lina Frederick, Korie Glenn, Hailey Hauf, Hadley Lewicki, Sophia Massaro, Bailey Maston, Melanie McKean, Savannah Montgomery, Erion Morgan, Amelia Payus, Maya Yngve, Skylar Steigerwalt, Hannah Zimmerman, Allaire Burton, Regan Best, Cara Willis, Claire Lopez, Shea Danahy, Emily Daddio, Madison Mark, Ava Ruggiero, Ava Yenovkian and Lily Bisaha.

Players of the Eastern Shore 2027 team are Emily Wells, Ally Diehl, Haley Gamuciello, Lelia Hughes, Atia Sabbagh, Mairaed Rishko, Sasha Robbins, Kemper Cox, Alexis Zolper, Daisy Mastriana, Sophia Anemone, Isabella Daniel, Amara Fruchtman, Angelina McCarthy, Jillian Leach, Brooke Moore, Blaire Moore, London Richardson, June Hale and Lexi Spiegel.
