Caroline Tarzian, Charlotte Boliver & Tara Mahon The Trojans avenged their 2007 state final loss by defeating Rondout Valley 2-1 in the Class B state championship game on November 15, 2008. Garden City led at half-time on a goal from Caroline McTiernan at the 11:46 mark assisted by Lauren Terracciano. Rondout Valley came out strong in the 2nd half eventually tying the game 1-1 with just 6:40 remaining. Eleni Andromidas then ripped a penalty stroke into the upper left corner of the cage with 4:20 remaining to regain the led for Garden City and she sealed the win with a penalty corner goal two minutes later. In the state semi-final, Garden City beat Vernon-Vestal-Sherrill 4-0 with forwards Caroline McTiernan and Eleni Andromidas each scoring a pair of goals with assists from Mariah Pewarski (2), Caroline McTiernan and Gabby Garcia. The Trojans finished the season 21-0 winning their third state title in four years. The offense scored 105 goals while the stingy defense allowed just 4 goals. Special thanks to Head Coach Diane Chapman, Asst Coach Lauren LiCalzi, Captains Amanda Keller, Kaila McDonnell and Lauren Terracciano for their hard work and dedication. Good luck to all the seniors!
