“We had to get off the schneid,” Revere coach Joe Ciccarello said. “We lost a lot to injuries.We were definitely shorthanded with goal scorers. We’ve been hurting for goal scorers. It feels good. It doesn’t get easier. We have Lynn Saturday, they have two good goal scorers. We’ll enjoy the first win but we’re hoping to get a roll here.”
