Medfield Girls' Lacrosse Wins on Senior Night to Finish Regular Season 16-2

Warriors defeat TVL rival Dover-Sherborn, 15-12 Tuesday to close out regular season.

Tuesday was Senior Night for the Medfield High School girls’ lacrosse team – so it was fitting that a pair of seniors led the Warriors to a 15-12 victory over rival Dover-Sherborn. MHS seniors Kate Wasley (five goals) and Katie Ott (four goals) led the team in scoring as the Warriors held off a pesky D-S squad to close out their regular season with 16 wins (10 in the Tri-Valley League). “We’ve had a great season,” said Medfield head coach Jason Heim. “We’re 16-2 and our two losses are to Westwood and they’re ranked No. 1 in the state.” Heim credited his players for grinding through a difficult schedule, especially down the stretch to finish the season on an eight game winning streak. “These girls are worn out,” Heim said. “We’ve played …

Medfield's Potent Offense Leads to 14-4 Victory over Holliston in Girls' Lax

Warriors overwhelm Holliston Sunday to pick up their 14th win of the season.

HOLLISTON – The Medfield High School girls' lacrosse team continued its strong 2011 season Sunday, notching a 14-4 victory over Tri-Valley League rival Holliston, improving to 9-2 in the TVL and 14-2 overall. The Warriors jumped ahead early, netting two quick goals in the first half. Holliston got one back off the stick of Ali Slyne (team-high three goals) but after that, it was all Medfield.  “It’s pretty much what I expected,” said Holliston head coach Chris Keiley. “My leading scorer (Vicky Sostilio) was out, I have an attack playing goalie, and I had two defenders out. But no excuses, they’re a better team than we are.” Medfield answered with four unanswered goals to take a 6-1 lead. Slyne netted her second tally of the game to bring …

Medfield Boys' Lacrosse Continues Dominance Over TVL

Medfield's 18-4 win over Westwood Tuesday keeps Warriors unbeaten in Tri-Valley League play.

The Medfield High School boys' lacrosse team (11-3) had no trouble with Tri-Valley League rival Westwood (9-5) Tuesday evening, as the league leading Warriors remained a perfect 9-0 in the TVL, winning 18-4.  Cal Given and Davis Parsons led the Medfield attack with four goals apiece and Derek Etzkorn added a hat trick. The highly efficient Warrior offense put in 18 of 27 shots on goal – moving the ball quickly and seamlessly around the Westwood defense.  “We do a lot of work on that,” said Medfield head coach Bob Aronson. “We had been a little sloppy at the beginning of the year, whether it was younger or inexperienced players, but they are coming into their own now and we spend a lot of time on it in practice so they are starting to click…

Medfield Girls' Lacrosse Rolls by D-S, 16-7 Friday

Warriors improve to 7-1 overall, 5-1 in the TVL this season.

The Medfield High School girls' lacrosse team continued its quick start to the season, knocking off rival Dover-Sherborn, 16-7 Friday night at D-S.  The Warriors (7-1, 5-1) jumped out to a 7-3 halftime lead but turned it up a notch coming out of the intermission, rattling off four straight goals in a less than three minute span - keeping possession away from the Raiders.  “[Medfield] had a lot of quick ball movement and it was taking us longer to recover from that than we were in the first half,” said D-S head coach Erin Newton. “In those four goals, our communication was down, our slides were down, but, in their defense, we were trying a lot of different things on defense to see which combination would work the best and be the most …
