Varsity Field Hockey

Dec 21, 2023 | Athletic Highlights

“The Varsity Field Hockey team was led by senior captains Charlotte Hyman and Colombe Gordon.  They were instrumental in leading by example and helped set the foundation of what we most value within our team.  In addition, our Junior captains, Leah Hong and Lilly Baumgarten, demonstrated strong leadership and a passion for the game.  Leah led the team in scoring with 10 goals and 4 assists for a total of 24 points. One of the highlights of the Varsity Field Hockey season was beating Demarest in overtime by a beautiful backhand tomahawk shot from Leah. Of course it was a team effort, but winning in overtime with that type of goal was definitely a top 10 ESPN-esque highlight.  Another exciting aspect to our season was that we had over 15 new 9th graders join the program this year.  We were able to have our first freshman game in the history of the school, and we were also able to field a full JV team this year.  This is a tremendous opportunity to grow the program  and develop our younger players!”
