So as we look towards Sunday’s state championship game, we first take a look back at your Wellesley Raider Girls Hockey team’s season that led to this third straight trip to the Garden. Here’s a little retrospective.
Record: 19-2-2 (First in BSC Herget)
Goals Scored: 96
Goals Allowed: 31
How they got here:
Beat Leominster/St. Bernards 3-0 in D2 First Round
Beat Medway/Ashland 2-0 in D2 Quarterfinals
Beat Plymouth 3-2 in D2 Semifinals
Notes: This Raider team shook off a loss in their second game of the season vs. Needham and went on a 16 game unbeaten streak before going 0-1-1 in their final 2 games. That didn’t faze the Raiders though as they posted shutouts in their first two tournament games before a thrilling semifinal victory over Plymouth on Monday. The Raiders have been to the Garden the last two years and have been the bridesmaid but never the bride but will look to make that third times the charm on Sunday. Offensively the team was led all season by their first line trio of senior captains Kiely Noonan, Carley Boyle, and Sophie Vernon. In goal the Raiders had the dynmaic duo of junior Alyssa Cimino and sophomore Caroline Bedrosian rotating throughout the season, both of whom consistently came up big when called upon.
