Pinkerton wins its 5th straight Junior Varsity Cross Country Championship, in a statewide meet that featured over 500 runners. "The overall score of 17 shows the depth of the team." said Coach Bob Royce.

Amanda Reny gathered in the rebound of a Taylor O'Neil shot off a penalty corner and tucked it in the open net midway through the second half to give Central Catholic its second win of the year over Dracut, 1-0. Hannah Arraj turned aside four shots for the Raiders (2-7), who owned a 7-2 edge in corners over the Middies.

Behind two goals from first-time varisty starter Janelle Colon, Lawrence picked up its second field hockey win of the season, 3-1, over Dracut.

"We changed a few people around," explained head coach Jenna Buco. "Things could have gone either way, and they obviously went the right way for us.

Beth Strong scored twice and Eden MacDougall and Callie Joseph each had a goal and an assist as Haverhill field hockey roughed up Dracut, 5-1.

Senior Ashley Adams scored two goals and added two assists as Methuen beat Dracut 5-0. Methuen (2-2) had scored just two goals in its three contests. Chelsee Sweeney also netted two goals while Elizabeth Rosario and Sarah Malagodi combined for five saves.   

It didn't take long for the Central Catholic field hockey team to break the ice.

In just its second game of competition, the Raiders defeated Dracut 1-0 on a first-half goal by Nicole Bisson and then played superb defense to improve to 1-1.

Lawrence earned a hard-fought 3-3 tie with Dracut. Jaimy Rosario scored the equalizer with 18 minutes left. This tie wasn't like kissing your sister as the Lancers went 0-15-1 last year and 0-89-5 in the previous six seasons. Sweeper Crismeli Guzman made the play of the game with a diving stop in the first half. Kelly Sicard embodied Lawrence's scrappy play. She was hit hard on a shot but gritted her teeth and came back.
