Mystic Valley Lady Eagles Soccer team tops Northeast, 5-0

  Last week Mystic Valley Regional Charter School’s girls’ soccer team defeated Northeast, 5-0, for another victory. The Eagles took command of the match right away with three new starters; one of them made an immediate impact. Reilly Hickey tallied the first goal in the game with an assist from Katie Guo, to give MVRCS an early lead. Alice Jones also tallied an assist, finding Lucia Antonucci and Reilly Hickey for more first half goals, which led to a 5-0 halftime result and Hickey’s first hat trick of the season. The second half would continue with the Lady Eagles dominance in the match: controlling possession and creating scoring chances. The Mystic Valley defenders, who were led by Bailey DeLeire and Audrey Wherry, showed confidence in front of the net, while Caroline Crowley came up big with a few important saves to secure the clean sheet.

  “The timing of this match was so important for the team,” said Head Coach Matthew Offner. “Every player played a significant role for us in our victory over Northeast, and several players made a case for getting more time on the pitch moving forward as we look forward to our most challenging week of the season so far. I was pleased with the team’s focus and collective passing, in addition to how we worked together and encouraged one another throughout the match.”

  On Sept. 26, MVRCS faced Lowell Catholic and won, 1-0.
