Highlights of the Week- Jan 10th-Jan 17th- 2015

Some great results for the Bulldogs this week!

The squad recorded its first ever points in the highly competitive SEMGHL League Coastal Division with a 1-1 tie with perennial hockey power Hingham and a 3-1 victory over 2014 state semi finalist Sandwich. 
     The girl's success has come from their commitment to defense, the strong goaltending of Lindsey Nolte and Colleen Kelleher, plus the remarkable leadership of our captains Jackie Martin, Mary McNeil, Abbey Mitcheroney and Kelsey Trerice
