On Monday, October 15, the Wayland Middle School girls faced off against the Lincoln Middle School girls in field hockey. It was a battle of two Warrior teams. Everybody was pumped up as the first whistle blew to signal the start of the game. Since Wayland won the coin toss, they elected to get the ball. Even with the advantage of starting with the ball, Lincoln still scored the first goal. #17 of Lincoln scored the goal with a beautiful dodge. After that, there wasn’t a lot of action near the goals, due to a huge amount of scrambling for the ball at the half line. Wayland finally scored, a poke-in from #6. 1-1 going into the half.
There was a lot of confidence oozing from the Wayland bench, and they started a rousing cheer to begin the second half. There wasn’t a lot of action in the second half, and Wayland scored 4 goals to easily take the game. The Wayland goalie looked bored. To the cheers of many, Wayland won 5-1.
From our perspective, #11 was the player of the game, with 4 assists, and 1 goal.
Come next game! You never know who you might meet! I myself saw the girl’s soccer team come to cheer on the field hockey athletes. Come on down! The team awaits you!
