The New Hope-Solebury Field Hockey team has
won the district title again; creating a winning streak of two years in a row.
The team is expected to continue doing well all the way to states. To nobody's
surprise, the team took down Lower Moreland in the 2018 PIAA District
championship game on Nov. 1, in a game with the score of 2-0. The game was hard
fought and extremely close the entire time. So close that there was only one
goal scored per half during the game. Two of the team's juniors, Mackenzie
Myers and Sara Hayden, were the players who scored the crucial goals for New
Hope-Solebury.
Even though New
Hope-Solebury came out with the victory, the team had to overcome some
obstacles during the game. One of the team’s star players, Annelise Dahlin had
to step out of the game due to a knee injury that shocked her teammates.
One of the team’s
players, Lilly Smith, told the press that “the other team was really skilled,
and it was a tough game, especially when we lost a key offensive player. But
our team stepped up, played hard, scored a few goals and ended up with the
result we wanted.”
The Girls Field
Hockey team is not afraid of a challenge and this game was no exception. After
overcoming many obstacles, the team pulled through and grabbed the District
title once again.
