Manheim Twp. entered the 2014 postseason as a heavy favorite to repeat as both the Lancaster-Lebanon League and District 3 girls' lacrosse champions.
The Blue Streaks did nothing to dispel that notion Tuesday night after they routed Cedar Crest 23-2 in a L-L semifinal at Warwick High School. Ten different players found the back of the net for Mark Pinkerton's crew as the Streaks advance to Thursday's L-L girls' championship game against Cocalico, a 15-14 (OT) winner over Lancaster Country Day.
