Stonington — The day began on a good note and ended on a great one.

The Waterford girls' soccer team, which learned Monday morning it had moved in the Connecticut Soccer Coaches' Association Class LL-L state poll in a tie for 10th place, went out and proved it was worthy of the ranking by edging Stonington 1-0 in an Eastern Connecticut Conference Division II match on Monday night.

The Lancers (6-0, 3-0) kept their perfect record intact by scoring the game's lone goal in the eighth minute when Nicole Li headed home a crossing pass from Emma Devito.

Waterford is tied with Simsbury in the No. 10 spot while Glastonbury, with all seven first-place votes, is ranked No. 1.

Stonington is 4-2, 0-1.
