Berwick Bulldogs beat Bancroft Bulldogs
Bulldogs bring home 3rd win of the season
The Berwick Bulldogs took on the Bancroft Bulldogs and came home with their third win of the season, and a score of 6-3, bringing their record to 3-0-0 on the season.
In the 5th minute of the match, Griffin Demers ‘28 (Rochester, NH) skillfully dribbled the ball up the left side of the field, and passed it into the middle to Sophia DeSimone ‘28 (Dover, NH) who dumped it into the back of the net.
Bancroft tied up the game in the 7th minute, but then Berwick’s Alexa Garcia ‘26 (Dover, NH) scored another for the Bulldogs when she hit a shot from 40 yards out and sent the ball soaring over the Bancroft goalie’s head.
Eighteen minutes in, Caitlyn Ebert ‘29 (Stratham, NH) earned her first career goal with a strong one-touch finish from 30 yards out.
Throughout the second half of the game, the Berwick Bulldogs continued to battle a physical Bancroft team.
Two minutes into the second half, Emma Rich ‘27 (Dover, NH) worked hard to earn Berwick a corner kick by battling a Bancroft defender. Subsequently, DeSimone scored her second goal of the match with a beautiful volley shot off the corner kick from Shumway.
Just one minute later, Demers took the ball up the left side of the field and passed it to Phoebe Yaris ‘29 (Raymond, NH) who dumped it in the goal, earning the 5th goal of the game. Yaris almost got on the board again a few minutes later when her shot hit the post and her rebound shot hit the crossbar.
Finally, in the 59th minute, Garcia scored the 6th goal when she took a free kick and put the ball in the top corner of the net.
Next, the Berwick Bulldogs will travel to Providence, RI, to take on the Wheeler School Warriors. Go Bulldogs!
