The girls grab yet another shut out
On a cold, blustery, overcast day out on Siberia as we so fondly call
our field now that daylight savings has ended and those north winds
have picked up, the girls varsity field hockey team defeated a
struggling Cheshire 6-0. Cheshire mounted a little offense in the
opening minutes, earning a penalty corner. It took Millbrook about 10
minutes to warm up and find our rhythm, our first score occuring at
22:23 as Anthony stole the ball, dribbled through 3 players, passed to
Zublin who scored from the left post position; assist to Anthony.
Millbrook had 6 penalty corners in the first half; Burdis and Kane
hammered shots at Cheshire's able goalie who made 8 great saves in the
first half alone. Millbrook's second score came off a scrum in front of
goal; Zublin with the tally. Anthony scored again at 8:54 with assists
to Burdis and Kane. The score was 3-0 at the half. Anthony scored again
in the second half; Kane scored on a solo run, and at 6:20 Scher
notched her third goal of the season with an assist to Fresne, who had
a solid game. Goalie Morrison came out of goal and played on the field,
clearly enjoying her freedom, dazzling spectators with her left-handed
hockey prowess. The team showed composure and grace in defeating a much
weaker team and are to be commended for their good sportsmanship.
