HAVERHILL — Two things were obvious for the few fortunate enough to watch Haverhill's 60-51 home loss to Dracut Tuesday night.

First, freshman Colleen Phiri, who is the sister of former Hillies' standout Saul Phiri, is one heck of a player who already plays like a seasoned upperclassman.

Haverhill's Cailey Simard and Olivia Melo went 1-2 in the all-around but Andover pulled out the 131.75-130.4 win. Molly Foster and Gabby Bresnick led the Golden Warriors.

Haverhill led by 2 at the half but Andover outscored the Hillie boys 24-4 in the third en route to a 67-45 win. Ryan MacLellan had 18 and Ayn Aruri 8 in the win.

North Andover's Sydney Schwalm finished first in the North Shore League races for the second straight week and teammate Jane Freund was second as the Knights won twice to improve to 4-0.

Tatum Shaw topped 30 points for the third time in four games this winter, and the second time this week, scoring 35 points to lead Andover past Haverhill 67-53. Hillies freshman phenom Colleen Phiri continued to roll with 23 points.

Andover beat Haverhill, 62-50, as Tatum Shaw erupted for 38 points, one of the top outputs in the area in years. Haverhill's Colleen Phiri tossed in 23 points.

 Junior Aidan Cammann erupted for 28 points to pace unbeaten Andover (3-0) over Haverhill, 57-50. Angel Burgos has 15 for the Hillies.

HPNA got out fast with four goals in the first period to win its first game of the season, 6-3 over Central Catholic. Kaitlyn Bush had a hat trick in the win while Maive Hurley had three goals for Central.

Eliza O'Sullivan and Rose MacLean both scored twice and Lauren Adams had four assists as Andover continued to roll, whipping Haverhill/North Andover/Pentucket, 8-2.

Lowell won the first matchup but it was all Haverhill in this one, 61-35. Phillip Cuningham pumped in a team-high 16 points while Junior Efosa, Elijah Haas and Enrique Alvarado chipped in with 9 apiece. Alvarado did a nice job at the point and Efosa controlled the paint.
