After a challenging regular season and a 7-6-3 record, the Canton field hockey team has seen a demanding season, standing in fourth place in the Hockomock Davenport league. However, the team rallied to capture a spot in the MIAA playoffs. Last Wednesday, at Bridgewater-Raynham High School, the Bulldogs pulled through to a triumphant 1-0 victory, qualifying them to move onto the 2nd round of playoffs: an away game tonight against Norwood.
Norwood and Canton have faced each other once this season at Norwood High School in late September, with Norwood, who has a 13-4-1 record, triumphed over Canton.
“We know they have a lot of speed and have a couple of really strong players but we just came out flat last game,” says senior captain Lindsey Nolte. “If we play up to our potential, then we will most definitely give them a good game.”
Canton will be facing the Norwood Mustangs after school today at 2:30pm at Norwood Senior High School. Best of luck to our Bulldogs!
