Moreira, meanwhile, was named Most Outstanding Player of the tournament after compiling 10 points (8-2-10) and nine draw controls this weekend.

Ten different student-athletes tallied at least one point on the afternoon for Wheaton while four student athletes – senior Sydney Ferguson (Jamestown, R.I./North Kingstown), sophomores Leila Mills (Brunswick, Maine/Brunswick) and Charlotte DeSantis (Darien, Conn./Darien), and freshman Morgan Prudden (Andover, Mass./Proctor Academy) – each recorded multiple points.

Wheaton outshot the Pioneers 34-19 on the afternoon and led 10-2 at halftime behind four goals from Moreira and two from Colburn. The Lyons scored the first seven goals of the second half – including DeSantis' 50th of the season – to build a commanding 17-2 lead. Smith received five yellow cards on the afternoon which led to a pair of up goals for the Lyons – one by Moreira in the first half and another by Colburn midway through the second stanza.

Sophomore Devon Soucier (Avon, Conn./Northwest Catholic) collected a team-high four ground balls for Wheaton while Colburn and Ferguson chipped in with three draw controls each.
