The Bulldogs traveled to Winsor for their second league match of the season and came away with a 2-1 win.  In the 14th minute, Caroline Hernon (Hampton, NH) got the ball on the right flank outside the eighteen, carried the ball into the eighteen towards the end line and slotted the ball to Aimee Briand (Barrington, NH) who turned and blasted it in the bottom right to put the Bulldogs up 1-0.  In the 22nd minute Winsor countered and hit a great shot to to the bottom left but Torieana St. Pierre (Portsmouth, NH) came up with a huge diving save. Cora Ordway (Rollinsford, NH) and Caroline Hernon did a great job managing the three central players on Winsor. Cora was instrumental in shutting down Winsor's top player for the full 80 minutes.   In the second half Winsor came  out in a 4-4-2, pushing forward trying to get the equalizer. The Berwick defense was solid with efforts from Parker Johnson (Kittery, ME), Maddie Balas (Rye, NH), Christina Grassie (Somersworth, NH), Emily Borkowski (Wells, ME),  and Kaitlyn Wurzer (Lee, NH).  The Bulldogs increased the lead in the 48th minute when Maddie Balas found Liv Hurley (Newburyport,MA) open in the six who blasted the ball over the Winsor keeper. Winsor pushed forward aggressively now down 2-0,  and had some good one-touch flank play up the sides and earned a few corners.  In the 78th minute Winsor capitalized on a corner when a Winsor player was open on the six and able to head it home to bring the game within one.  Berwick continued to battle with great pressure in the closing twelve minutes to pull of their second straight league win now 3-1-0 overall he Bulldogs will host Hyde school on Saturday 9/21 at 3:00pm
