Westminster Falls with Grit & Grace to Choate
The Martlets traveled to Wallingford, Conn. to take on the Wild Boars of Choate under the lights on Sept. 30. The Martlets were on the defensive much of the first half as Choate shot on many opportunities in the Westminster defensive end, but the defense, led by keeper Siena Sandridge '19, kept those out of the net. Ten minutes into the game, Choate got on the board with a free kick just outside the 18-yard box. Choate found the net twice more in the first but not without great counter attack opportunities, possession and ball movement from your Martlets. The Grit & Grace Westminster displayed on the field not only remained in the second half, but was elevated, as the Martlets possessed the ball for almost all of the second half, creating chances, playing their game, and controlling the contest pace. Despite this, Choate found the net twice more. Although the score may not reflect it, Westminster turned in a gritty and graceful game and did not once let up. Sandridge was tremendous in net and key contributors to defense were Natalie Rubin '19, Jaclyn Laplante '20, Sam de Kanter '22, Ella Varano '21 and Blake Cote '19.
