Bulldogs Win 6th Game of the Season

The Bulldogs traveled to Kent’s Hill and came home with a 4-0 win to improve to 6-0-0 on the season.

 

The Bulldogs came out strong despite the long bus ride and in the first minute Grace Libby (Standish, ME) almost scored off a pass from Chili Dowd (Amesbury, MA) but the shot went wide. In the 10th minute The Bulldogs had their best chance to break the deadlock when Chili ripped a shot through the goalie's hands and into the crossbar and out for a corner.  Bella Mazza (Madbury, NH) then almost scored off a full volley from the corner kick but the shot was blocked.  In the 16th minute the Bulldogs finally got on the board when Chili combined with Grace on a give and go and rifled a shot to the top corner that was unsavable.  Just 7 minutes later the Bulldogs increased the lead when Rose McComiskie (Groveland, MA) played a great ball to Blake Metcalf (Scarborough, ME) who one-touched a great curving shot to the lower corner to increase the Bulldogs' lead.  Just before the halftime whistle, Grace volleyed the ball to Chili Dowd who got her second goal of the game making it 3-0 going into the halftime break.

 

The Bulldogs struggled to get more on the board in the second half as the Huskies made it difficult for the Bulldogs to break into the 18.  But the Bulldogs held an 11-1 shot advantage and 8-0 edge in corners over the entire match. The Bulldogs managed one late second half goal to make the final 4-0.  Parker Roenick (Exeter, NH) did a great job tracking back and applying pressure.  She won the ball on the left flank and quickly served the ball past the Huskies' backline.  In true weaseling fashion, Juliette Lohnes (Berwick, ME) broke through the back line and lifted the ball over the charging Huskies keeper giving the Bulldogs their fourth goal of the game and her first career goal.

 

The Bulldogs will host Winsor School at 11am on Saturday 9/24 in a big Eastern Independent League matchup on Alumni Weekend.  Go Bulldogs!
