Field Hockey Blanks NCDS for Second Straight Win

With their second shutout in as many weeks, the Belmont Day field hockey team improved to 2-4 on the season. Following up their 4-0 win at Charles River last week, the team blanked Newton Country Day 5-0 on Wednesday in the team’s final home game of the fall. First year players Bridget Peters and Finnoula Wheeler demonstrated confidence on the field, while team veterans Charlotte McIntosh (strong defensive play) and Ellora Roy (aggressive midfield presence) helped control the pace of play. Collectively, it was the team’s best effort of the season, especially in terms of their spacing and field awareness. Goals were scored by Lynn Lewis, Elizabeth Amaratunga, Michelle Mejia-Levy, Erika Tinmouth, and Maya Gregor. The team will look to finish their season on a high note next week on the road against Lexington Christian Academy.
