A perfect start for Smithfield girls lacrosse could end the same way.

SMITHFIELD – In the search for the perfect ending that evaded them last season, the Smithfield girls lacrosse team has found something so far in 2026. Perfection. The final month of the season has arrived and the Sentinels, last year’s Division III runner up, hasn’t lost a game.

Smithfield’s done it with chemistry, a terrifying offense and a memory of what happens if you’re not at your best on gameday. Thursday the Sentinels put it all on display in a 13-3 win over Ponaganset that continued their dominance in D-III. “We are on top of the world right now,” said Smithfield’s Grace Young, who scored five goals in the win.

“These girls are like my family. Last year was a tough loss in the [Division III] championship, but we’re coming back for it this year. ” “I’m pretty happy to be having this momentum we’re having this year,” said Annabelle Lally, who had three goals against Ponaganset.

“It’s really good. We’re a really strong team, we’re all really good friends on the field and off the field and I feel that chemistry really shows when we play. ” It’s tough to disagree with Lally’s sentiments.
