Undefeated Bulldogs beat Winsor Wildcats
Bulldogs win 6th game of the season
The Bulldogs traveled to Boston to take on a strong team, the Winsor Wildcats, and came home with 1-0 win.
This was the Bulldogs’ 5th shutout, and they are now 6-0-0 on the season; they are also 3-0-0 in the Eastern Independent League.
The Bulldogs and the Wildcats played a pretty even first half, keeping the game scoreless.
Fourteen minutes into the match, Bulldog Goalkeeper Alexa Garcia ‘26 (Dover, NH) ran out and stopped the ball on a front smother, making the statement that the Berwick team had arrived to compete.
In the 25th minute, the Wildcats had a chance with a free kick, but couldn’t capitalize because again, Garcia caught the shot.
With three minutes left in the first half, Taylor Caffelle ‘29 (Somersworth, NH) almost put one on the scoreboard when she made a great shot that hit the frame and went just over.
The Bulldogs strong defensive line made it quite difficult for the Wildcats to make progress toward the goal.
In the 54th minute, when a Winsor player did carry a ball toward the goal, Garcia prevented it with a smother yet again.
With 12 minutes left on the clock, Sophia DeSimone ‘28 (Dover, NH) changed the direction of the game when she skillfully tapped the ball into the net off an assist from Rylee White ‘29 (Fremont, NH).
Then, in the 73rd minute, Garcia made a gorgeous save when a Winsor offensive player carried the ball in on a breakaway and shot on goal.
The Berwick Bulldogs will play Lexington Christian Academy away in Lexington next Thursday.
Go Bulldogs!
68th minute: S. DeSimone from R. White
