Bulldogs beat Concord Academy 4-0
 
On Wed, Nov. 5, the Bulldogs played their final game of the regular season on their home turf and beat Concord Academy 4-0, securing a spot in the EIL tournament.  The Bulldogs are 13-4-1 on the regular season and Goalkeepers Alexa Garcia '26 (Dover, NH) and Julia Brennan '28 (Exeter, NH) earned the Bulldogs 12 shutouts. 
 
Eighteen minutes into the game, the Bulldogs set the tone by scoring when Emma Rich '27 (Dover, NH) passed the ball through to Rylee White '29 (Fremont, NH) who then dribbled the ball up the right side of the field, kicked it across in front of the goal, and Griffin Demers '28 (Rochester, NH) scored with a strong volley shot. 
 
Only two minutes later, the Bulldogs reversed that same play, but this time it was White who got the goal and Demers who got the assist. Demers got the ball from Garcia's free kick, passed the ball to White from the top left of the field, and White vollied it into the net. 
 
With two minutes left on the clock in the first half, Carly Shumway '29 (Wells, ME) scored a great goal from outside the six yard line off an assist from Demers. 
 
The Bulldogs kept the pressure on throughout both halves of the game, and didn't let up at all. With 20 minutes on the clock, Alexa Garcia shot a low, hard free kick and scored. 
 
The Bulldogs will play Pingree School away on Friday. Go Bulldogs!
