Griffin field
hockey finishes
with a win
POMFRET — The Pomfret field hockey team went 1-1 last week and finished the regular season with a 3-0 victory over league opponent Millbrook School (N.Y.).
Nov. 10 Pomfret traveled to Marion, Mass., to play a solid Tabor Academy team. Tabor went into the game sporting a 10-3 regular playing a very competitive schedule. Pomfret had nothing to lose and played one of their best games all year. Tabor managed a goal in the first and fourth quarters to earn the win.
Nov. 13, the Griffins hosted Millbrook School for a first-ever match-up and a league game. As of this year, a new school rivalry has begun between Pomfret and Millbrook so winning this game counted toward school pride as well. Pomfret scored three goals in the first seven minutes for the 3-0 victory. The regular season ended with a 10-8 record and an 8-5 WNEPSFHA record.
An end-of-the-season highlight was the selection to the WNEPSFHA All-Star Game for senior co-captains Emma McLean and Cate Gallagher. In addition, Grace Long ’23 led the team with 17 goals this fall followed by Gallagher with 11. Carter Lockwood ’22 finished the season with 9 assists. Goalie Keira O’Brien ’25 recorded 6 shutouts for her first season in goal for Pomfret.
