Senior Sydney Meader scored four goals, three unassisted, and senior Kayla Lewis scored two goals as the Boothbay Region High School field hockey team, now 11-1, crushed the visiting Hall-Dale Bulldogs, 10-1, at home Oct. 4 on a day the coaches and administrators honored the team’s seniors, playing their last officially scheduled home game, and their parents.

Hall-Dale (3-10), which arrived late (along with the two officials) due to the construction in Boothbay, fell behind 3-0 before three minutes had expired. Boothbay never let up, taking a 6-0 lead into halftime. The Seahawks added two more goals early in the second half before Lauren Hendrickson scored the Bulldogs’ only goal to make it 8-1. BRHS Coach Donna Jordan, who was also honored before the game for amassing 300 wins in her hall of fame career — being only one of six high school coaches in the state to get that many wins – substituted freely throughout the second half, letting players try several different positions. 

Besides the goals from Meader and Lewis, sophomore Chloe Arsenault scored two and seniors Page Brown and Sydney Mercier each scored one goal. Lewis, Brown, Mercier and senior Jo Shaw also had assists.

Boothbay will play at Telstar (0-12) on Friday and host Spruce Mountain (8-4) on Monday in a rescheduled game at 10:30 a.m.

Wednesday’s game was filmed by Channel 7 and will be shown once the station is up and running again, sometime at the end of October. Michelle Bouchard and Larry Brown were the commentators and Hawke Motors provided a boom to get camera operator Cody Mitchell high above the field.
