The Berwick Girls Varsity Soccer team played Newton Country Day School on Sat, 10/15 on Berwick’s home turf on a sunny and warm morning, coming away with a 2-0 win. Berwick had a 3-0 corner kick advantage, and despite Newton’s 9-4 shot advantage, the Bulldogs still came up ahead.

Three minutes later, Bella Mazza (Madbury, NH), gave a great one-touch ball to Sevilla Coffin (Newburyport, MA) who crossed it to Grace Libby (Standish, ME) on the goal line. Grace shot and scored the Bulldogs’ first goal of the game.
In the 11th minute, goalie Allie Moore (North Berwick, ME) made a great save when she snagged a cross over her head.
The Bulldogs’ second goal came in the 46th minute when Chili Dowd passed to Grace Libby with a beautiful cross, and Grace finished it with a one-touch shot.
In the 60th minute, Moore made a huge and graceful free kick over the Newton defense. Ten minutes later, there was no call on a penalty pick when the Newton keeper took out Blake Matcalf (Scarborough, ME).
In the 73rd minute, Metcalf hit a great through ball to Libby who shot it just wide. Then Moore made a solid hold on a hard shot in the 78th minute to keep the game scoreless.
The Bulldogs earned their 10th shutout of the season, and Allie Moore made 9 saves.
