Oxford Tournament

Marathon 6, Oxford 2

OXFORD – Marathon did not need overtime as it did last year in capturing the Blackhawks’ tournament title Saturday evening.

Kaitlyn Bliss and Marta Malmberg had a pair of goals, and Tessa Knapp added a tally giving her four over the two-day tournament to pace the Olympians over the host club.

Marathon picked up the offense with four second-half goals.

Christi Baker and Erin Law scored unassisted for Oxford, who dropped to 2-3 on the season.

Greene, coming off a tight loss to Marathon the previous evening (3-2), routed Whitesboro as Holly Davis scored three goals and Andrea Day finished with her second two-goal game of the tournament.

Oxford advanced to the final with a 4-1 victory over Whitesboro.
