BRAINTREE, Mass. — Neither Madison Hayes nor Evelyn Lacey was going to blink.
The two went save-for-save, each finishing with 30 stops and securing a 1-1 tie in a key girls prep hockey clash between No. 7 Tabor and Thayer.
Lydia Kealty (Norfolk, Mass.) opened the scoring in the moments of the second, burying a shorthanded breakaway for the host Tigers (7-4-2).
Jen Birolini (Pembroke, Mass.) tied it for the Seawolves (8-2-2) with 10:28 to go in regulation, burying a rebound off Adeline Wiesel’s (Needham, Mass.) shot from the point.
It was a classic goalie duel down the stretch.
