The Berwick Bulldogs played the Montrose Mavericks on Friday afternoon, Oct. 18 on their home turf, and although they played a steady and competitive game, they fell to Montrose 0-1.
Six minutes into the game, goalkeeper Julia Brennan '28 (Exeter, NH) made a great diving save off a strong shot from Montrose. Two minutes later, Alexa Garcia '26 (Dover, NH) had a shot on goal, and gave the Bulldogs a corner, creating a scoring opportunity. Defender Juliette Lohnes '25 (Berwick, ME) played a strong defensive game, and one time in particular, in the 16th minute, won the ball, cut it back, and drove it all the way up the field. Brennan made another notable save off a Montrose corner kick a few minutes later. Then, in the 31st minute of the first half, Montrose took a shot on goal, the ball hit the crossbar, bounced down and Brennan caught it on a smother. The Bulldogs played the last 15 minutes of the first half a bit more offensively, but simply could not capitalize on these moments.
In the second half, Garcia, now in goal, made an impressive save off a Montrose corner kick. The Bulldogs did create some great opportunities off their own corner kicks, but again, could not finish them. In the last 15 minutes of the game, Montrose scored their one goal.
The Bulldogs are 6-6-2 on the season and will host Proctor Academy on Wed., Oct. 23. Go Bulldogs!
