Westminster Tops Berkshire in Gritty Victory
Westminster First Girls’ Soccer travelled to Sheffield, Mass. to take on the Berkshire Bears in the final away contest of the season. The Martlets dominated the entire game, dictating the pace of play and outshooting the home team each half. The muddy field conditions could have made for serious issues in the possession game, but Westminster maintained control and kept composure, playing with grit and grace as the white uniforms and socks turned brown and soaked with each smart tackle. The Martlets put the pressure on the Berkshire keeper, who turned in a fantastic game, and the game remained 0-0 until there was 4:19 left to play in the game. Captain Georgia Swank ‘19 was tackled in the box but was told to play on — that was when Westminster’s Ella Varano ‘21 converted the loose ball to a cross across the six-yard box to find Solveig Nycander ‘20 who volleyed it into the net for the lone goal of the game. This game was one of determination, teamwork, and grit, and Westminster came out on top. The Martlets look forward to hosting their final two games of the season this coming week.
