East Lyme — East Lyme broke open a tight girls' soccer game with three second half goals on the way to a 5-1 victory over Waterford in non-conference action on Wednesday.

The Vikings led 2-1 at halftime before Meredith Healy scored her second and third goals of the contest and Alivia Catanzaro also found the back of the net. They've won five of their last six games.

They've made a habit of playing their best soccer after intermission.

"We are a second half team," coach Rachel Redding said. "They like to give me a stroke. It's not very nice. I'm aging quickly."

Caitlin O'Dea also scored for the Vikings (6-2-1). Healy and Catanazaro each added an assist and goalie Avery Owen made four saves.

McKenzie Gregory scored for the Lancers (3-3-2) and Claudia Blazquez had the assist.
