Bulldogs play hard but suffer 4th loss of the season

On Saturday, 10/25 on their home turf, The Bulldogs suffered their 4th loss of the season to an undefeated Portsmouth Abbey team. The Bulldogs battled and did a great job of keeping the game scoreless throughout the first half. The back line did an impressive job of defending throughout the game, and the entire Berwick squad pushed hard until the end. 

 

Seven minutes into the second half, however, the Ravens were able to get their first goal. They had a few other chances, but before they scored the second goal, both Berwick goalies had incredible saves. First, goalkeeper Alexa Garcia ‘26 (Dover, NH) prevented a goal with a front smother off a breakaway shot from a Portsmouth Abbey player. Then, after a goalkeeper switch for the Bulldogs, goalkeeper Julia Brennan ‘28 (Exeter, NH) made a beautiful save when she jumped to catch the Ravens’ strong and high shot. The Bulldogs were running out of time and with 12 minutes on the clock, the Ravens were able to put one more goal in the net. Undeterred, the Bulldogs fought hard until the very end of the game, winning balls and  battling with every bit of energy left in them. 

The Bulldogs are 10-4-1 on the season. Nearing the end of the regular season, the Bulldogs hope to secure a spot in the EILs  and/or NEPSACs. They will play Hyde School on Wednesday 10/29. Go Bulldogs!
