Nathan Daley led the Eagles with a one-over round of 37 while Eric Carter added a 41 for Sharon.

King Philip, 163 @ Franklin, 158 – Final – Franklin’s depth proved pivotal in a close win at home over visiting King Philip. The Warriors’ Jared Curran was the match medalist with a 37 while Mike Matheson shot a 39 for KP. But Franklin’s top four all finished within four strokes of one another, led by Jack Paterson’s 38. Sean Connelly added a 39, Nolan Norton shot a 40, and Brian Sandham chipped in with a 41 in Franklin’s win.

Taunton, 191 @ Mansfield, 148 – Final – All four of Mansfield’s scorers shot under 40 at Norton Country Club as the Hornets picked up a win over Taunton. Ryan Dow led the way with a match-medalist round of 35, Brian See added a round of 37 while both Cian Goulet and Nate Morreale each shot a 38 in the win.

North Attleboro, 172 @ Stoughton, 181 – Final – Jake Gaskin and Sam Gallagher split medalist honors as the Rocketeers recorded a win at Easton Country Club over Stoughton. Both Gaskin and Gallagher shot 42 to lead the Big Red to a win. Anthony Hern also shot a 42 to earn medalist honors while Joe Mark added a 43 for the Black Knights.

Foxboro, 160 @ Oliver Ames, 153 – Final – Oliver Ames picked up an important win over division foe Foxboro on the links at Pine Oaks in Easton. Senior Logan Domenico and junior Jake Kaplan each shot a 37 to lead the Tigers, with Domencio sinking a birdie on the eighth hole.

2020 Hockomock League Field Hockey Preview

Attleboro

2019 Record: 9-8-3
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South First Round
Coach: Lindsay Antunes
The Bombardiers had one of their best years in recent memory during the 2019 season and with a strong group of returning players, are looking to carry that success over to 2020.

While replacing HockomockSports Player of the Year Anna Beck will certainly be a tough task, the Bombardiers have a lot of talented players back ready to take advantage of the pace and space that comes with 7v7 field hockey — a new rule modification this season. There is a lot of firepower in the Attleboro offense, a group that has played together before and is always looking to set each other up. Senior captains Amanda Burns (five goals, nine assists), Campbell Compton, and Hannah Webster will spearhead the attack alongside junior Madison Ellis (seven goals, six assists).

Attleboro’s defensive unit is coming along, showing plenty of progress in preseason alone. With some open spots up for grabs on defense, potential candidates took advantage of offseason club teams to improve their game. Senior Kiara Murray will be an important part of the backline while junior Ava Haggerty returns in net after a stellar sophomore season.

“I’m really looking forward to seeing the accomplishments and success of this team this season,” said Attleboro head coach Lindsay Antunes. “The strong leadership skills, the positive attitudes and the confidence my players have this season is amazing to see given the nature of this season and all of the changes and challenges. We have a lot of returning players with tremendous skill, paired with new additions to our roster who are sure to make an impact this season.”

Hockomock League Field Hockey

Canton

2019 Record: 12-4-3
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South First Round
Coach: Chrissy O’Connor
Expectations are high in Canton as the Bulldogs, one of the perennial league powers year in and year out, will be looking to repeat as Davenport division champions. A big reason for that optimism is the amount of returners from last year’s squad that had 12 wins, just one league loss, and a division-best 61 goals scored.

Senior captain Maria Femia played a part in nearly half of those goals, finding the back of the net five times while recording a Hockomock-best 27 assists. She’ll work alongside Meghan LaBelle (nine goals, eight assists) to form one of the most dangerous attacking units in the Hockomock League.

Beyond Foxboro, one of the biggest challenges the Dogs will face this year is the new rule modifications. Just six players plus a goalie will grace the field at one time, meaning a lot more space to cover. Add in the fact the girls have to wear a mask while wearing a mouthguard.

Allie Gefteas and Lizzie Tassinari will be key pieces in the Canton lineup as well. While defending will look a bit different this year with breakaways more of a concern than penalty corners (which aren’t allowed), the Dogs have senior Riley O’Connor back in net. O’Connor has been one of the top goalies in the Hock the past two seasons and is very aggressive off her line.

“We are excited to have the opportunity to be back on the field this season,” said Canton head coach Chrissy O’Connor. “Our team has worked hard to be here and they do not take it for granted. Our seniors who have played together since a young age deserve to have a competitive and fun season. We look forward to getting started with games next week.”

Foxboro

2019 Record: 13-2-5
2019 Finish: Reached D2 South Quarterfinal
Coach: Melissa Bordieri
Last year’s Davenport division race came down to just one game, with Canton taking the title with two more points than Foxboro. With just 10 games on tap this season, the Warriors know each point is vital if they want to try and knock off the Bulldogs atop the division.

Replacing Jaime Notarangelo won’t be easy but the Warriors have options and depth as they navigate the new rules of 2020. Foxboro is coming off a 13-win season that ended in the D2 South Quarterfinal round.

Senior Ella Waryas will be a key piece in the middle of the field for the Warriors this season. Her ability to play strong defense and then transition into a key piece of the offense will be vital in the new 7v7 style. Sophomore Mya Waryas (seven goals in 2019) had a breakout season and could be an important part of the Foxboro attack in 2019. The Warriors will also see production from senior Molly McElhinney, juniors Kate Collins and Mikayla Doherty, and sophomore Dylan Rappoli (four goals, four assists in 2019).

All-Hockomock selection Shannon Egan is back to anchor a defensive unit that was the best in the Hockomock League last season with just 11 goals allowed. And on top of that, senior Hannah Trombley is back in the cage to anchor the defensive unit.







Hockomock League Field Hockey

Franklin

2019 Record: 15-3-2
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South Quarterfinal
Coach: Michelle Hess
When you look at the talent the Panthers possess on their roster this season, it’s hard not to immediately think what kind of run they could go on in the postseason. Unfortunately, there aren’t any playoffs this season so Franklin’s focus zeroes in on one thing: repeating as Hock champs.

A year removed from going undefeated against league opponents, the Panthers enter the 2020 season as the favorites to take home another Kelley-Rex title. For starters, Franklin has its top three scorers back from last year’s team that scored a Hockomock-best 91 goals. Amanda Lewandowski (20 goals, 10 assists), Stephanie Bell (14 goals, eight assists), and last year’s HockomockSports Underclassman of the Year Kaitlyn Carney (14 goals, eight assists) combine to make the Panthers one of the most lethal teams in the region.

Franklin’s offense even more of a boost with the return of senior captain Sara Carney (who missed last season with an injury) and junior forward Jill Fenerty.

Senior captain Neilee Hess anchors the defensive unit as the starting goalie. Hess’ experience will be vital as Franklin has some new faces on its defensive unit, including Molly Collins, Kendall Jones, and Kate O’Rourke. Freshman midfield Sophia Cuneo could make an impact right away.

“I am extremely proud of my team and how they have adapted to the modifications,” said Franklin head coach Michelle Hess. “They have taken a situation that could have put a damper on their enthusiasm and shared with me that they are just ready to get to work. They have a Hock Title to defend and these modifications are not going to stop them from accomplishing their goal of a Back to Back Kelley-Rex Title!”

King Philip

2019 Record: 10-7-3
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South First Round
Coach: Lisa Cropper
King Philip had a lot of new faces last year, but there wasn’t a huge drop-off from the team’s success of the back-to-back title-winning seasons, as the Warriors finished in second place in the Kelley-Rex division and picked up a win in the postseason. With returning players all over the field, KP has high expectations to challenge Franklin for a league title this fall.

Speed will be one of the strengths for the Warriors, who will try to take advantage of experience on the wings in the new 7-on-7 format. Seniors Abby Nixon and Paige Berdos are both coming off strong seasons in the attack and senior midfielders Grace and Isabelle Crocker will push forward to add more threats in front of goal.

Experience will be a key to the defensive effort this year, starting in goal with senior Makenzie Manning, who has been on of the league’s top shot stoppers (and showed it in the season-opening win against Mansfield). Junior Molly Piller had a very strong sophomore season and will be the team’s sweeper, while juniors Christina Gifun and Morgan Cunningham and senior Alli Beltramini are all back as part of the defensive unit.

“We have a lot of experience, but I’m not sure how much that will help us with no penalty corners and only six field players,” said KP coach Lisa Cropper. “Hopefully our depth and overall team speed will help to cover all that empty space out there this year.”

Hockomock League Field Hockey

Mansfield

2019 Record: 12-7-2
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South Quarterfinal
Coach: Theresa Nyhan
Longtime Mansfield head coach Theresa Nyhan is excited to see what the 2020 version of the Hornets can do on the field this season. The new rule modifications have taken some players off the field, making it 7-v-7, but that opens up a lot of space on the field.

That space benefits the Hornets as Nyhan says her squad has speed in both the attacking and defending ends of the field. But the new rules also bring a pair of intriguing challenges. First will be figuring out a new substitution pattern that keeps players fresh for 60 minutes, and the other is adjusting the offense without penalty corners — not only for gameplan purposes but for the active rest players can get while setting up.

The Hornets have a large number of seniors and juniors on the team this year, hoping that experience will translate to success on the field. Tai-captains Abby Varracchione, Alex Burnham, and Grace Danehy lead the way for the Hornets and will be vital to the success of the squad. Seniors Fiona Katz, Stori Rounds, and Emma Kelly will bolster the forward group, Lindsay Devine, Grace Fernandez, and Ally McDevitt provide depth to the midfield, and Bella Deberghes, Lily O’Brien, and Leah Sheehan are important pieces to the defensive puzzle.

Juniors Caitlin Dumouchel, Celia Puleo, Maddy Brown, and Grace Bertolino should factor in this season while sophomore Lilly Danehy will take over as the starting goalie. Nyhan expects freshman Lola Varracchione to be an impact player at the varsity level right away.

“The Mansfield field hockey community wants to thank all who have worked long and hard to make a season possible,” Nyhan said. “We are grateful seniors have a “senior season” and look forward to competing!’




Milford

2019 Record: 4-12-2
2019 Finish: Missed playoffs
Coach: Tim Dowd
The Scarlet Hawks saw improvement during the 2019 season and are hoping that upward trajectory continues into 2020 under new head coach Tim Dowd.

Milford will be leaning on its three captains to lead the way: Maddy Carneiro, Olivia Macleod, and Olyvia Whyte. All three have been cornerstones of the program and will be leaders both on and off the field.

Maddy Hunt will start in the cage for the Hawks, who will be putting a lot of importance into the defensive side of the ball. With the new rule modifications meaning there will be more breakaways, the Hawks are hoping to have good numbers defensively to give Hunt as much help as possible.

Offensively, the Hawks will turn to speedy juniors Emma Tredeau and Stephanie Wong to try and take advantage of all of the space on the field. With just six field players, conditioning and positioning are going to be of the utmost importance.

“It’s certainly going to be an interesting season as we all try to adjust to the modifications and a new way of approaching the game,” Dowd said. “We’re just focusing on working hard and keeping a positive attitude.”

Hockomock League Field Hockey

North Attleboro

2019 Record: 6-8-4
2019 Finish: Missed playoffs
Coach: Karen Folan
North Attleboro finished third in the Davenport division last season, just two points out of a playoff spot, but will not only have to contend with the typical top two of Canton and Foxboro but will also have Oliver Ames in the division this year and the modified 7-on-7 rules, which should make this an interesting fall.

The Rocketeers have a strong group of returning players that they can count on and expectations of being competitive in every game, but also are trying to adapt to new positioning and the much quicker transitions that come from having fewer players and more space on the field. Senior forwards Lauren Abusheery and Emma Bailey will look to take advantage of those openings to create scoring chances, while sophomores Ava Spencer and Caroline Folan are newcomers that have shown a scoring touch in the preseason.

In the midfield, senior Nora Dluhy is a consistent performer wherever she lines up and sophomore Julia Puccio has the speed and ball control to weave through defenders. Senior Emily Daby will lead the defensive unit and can also step up into the midfield and carry possession, which will be a big help with the new rules. Senior Hannah Bachand will take over in goal this season.

The team is excited to start games this week,” said North coach Karen Folan. “I’ve told them to enjoy each minute on the field and to make the most of the shortened season and the unique situation.”

Oliver Ames

2019 Record: 9-10-0
2019 Finish: Reached D1 South Preliminary Rou
Coach: Sharon Lawrence
There are a lot of familiar names on Oliver Ames’ roster this season, highlighted by 11 seniors and eight returning starters from last year’s team. The Tigers have experience all over the field and could be a dark horse in the Davenport division title race.

With the game reduced to six field players due to the rule modifications, there is plenty of space on the field. That fits right into OA’s gameplan as the Tigers are looking to utilize their speed and passing game to jump-start their offense. Like many teams in the league, Oliver Ames will be shifting to lines similar to an ice hockey team. With a total of 24 players on the team, there is plenty of depth so head coach Sharon Lawrence will be using her deep bench to keep fresh legs on the field throughout the game.

“We are all just happy to be together and have a season,” Lawrence said. ”They have all worked so hard and deserve it!  Getting outside to play together is a mental and physical win for all.”

The heart of the team lies in the midfield as the Tigers have a strong mix of talent and experience. Senior captain Maggie Woods, a HockomockSports.com First Team selection last season, gets it done on both ends of the field, a big part of getting Oliver Ames transitioned from defense to offense. She will be joined by senior Sofia Anestam, junior Ava Costello, and sophomore Julia Maclaine in the midfield.

The Tigers return two dangerous attacking players in junior Georgia Costello (nine goals, five assists in 2019) and senior Haley Gilman (five goals, one assist). Without penalty corners, OA will lean on its speed up front to try and beat the defense and score in the run of play. The defense will be anchored by senior captain Emily Han, who has a lot of experience at the varsity level and senior Abbey Boyce.




Hockomock League Field Hockey

Sharon

2019 Record: 2-13-3
2019 Finish: Missed playoffs
Coach: Paulina Kosmadakis
Former Sharon standout Paulina Kosmadakis is back with the program, this time taking over as new head coach. And after an improved 2019 season, Kosmadakis is hoping the program continues heading in the right direction in 2020.

The Eagles broke into the win column last season and Kosmadakis has liked what she’s seen from her team so far in the preseason. It starts with the team’s four captains: Sam Sherman, Ashley Young, Jill Parker, and Yesha Sharma. Kosmadakis said that the group has brought a new, competitive edge to the program.

Offensively, the Eagles strength is on fast breaks. Improved passing has led to some odd-man rushes and the opportunity to go one-on-one with defenders. It also comes as a result of a lot of space on the field due to the modifications to the rules. On the flip side, the Eagles are adjusting to the new intensity that 7v7 field hockey brings. Kosmadakis plans on using as much of her bench as possible with a lot of subbing throughout the game.

“I believe that the team is really stepping up their competitive edge and going to “Shock the Hock” both defensively and offensively,” Kosmadakis said. “I am excited for this season and the seasons to come!”

Hockomock League Field Hockey

Stoughton

2019 Record: 2-15-2
2019 Finish: Missed playoffs
Coach: Dan Mark
After a two-win season in 2019, Stoughton will look to bounce back this fall with an experienced group, with 20 seniors on the roster, which faces the tough test of trying to compete with the top teams in the Davenport division, and it starts right away with two games against defending league champ Canton in the first week.

The Black Knights should be capable of scoring goals this year with a speedy forward line getting extra space to work with the new 7-on-7 rules. Senior forwards Haley Nelson and Morgan Lessa will be the leaders in the attack and have the skills to put defenders on the back foot. Juniors Zofia Bangs and Mia Allie are new forwards that add depth to the attack this season.

Seniors Sarah McGrath and Kat Billo will shore things up in the midfield and try to help cover for the backline. Senior Lena Allie jumps in goal this season after a solid year with the JV team last fall.

“The biggest obstacle with the modifications is only having six field players and a goalie on the field,” said Stoughton coach Dan Mark. “I plan on using line shifts like in ice hockey. We have a large senior-dominated team, so hopefully that experience should help us.”

Hockomock League Field Hockey

Taunton

2019 Record: 5-12-1
2019 Finish: Missed playoffs
Coach: Liz Hathaway
Looking back at last year’s standings, if there’s one team’s record that isn’t indicative of how good a team was, it’s Taunton. The Tigers had a stellar defense, allowing just 30 goals in total, playing close games against some of the top teams in the league including KP, Foxboro, and Canton.

Defense will be a strong suit of the Tigers once again this season. Even with the changes to the game with the new rule modifications, Taunton will hang its hat on the defensive end. Junior Emily Gannon is a major part of that, returning as the starting goalie after a breakout sophomore season. Gannon had over 100 saves last season, five shutouts, and allowed one or fewer goals in 10 of the 18 games played.

Gannon will have a familiar face in front of her as Jocelyn Pagliuca enters her third season as a key piece of the Tigers’ defense. With that much experience in the defensive end, expect Taunton to be among the toughest groups to break down.

The Tigers are hoping to find the back of the net more during the 2020 season. With last year’s leading scorer back in Alana Tavares, there’s a good chance that happens. Tavares, who has been on the team since eighth grade, will be among the top threats in the league. Having more space will allow Tavares to use her speed to get behind the defense and attack the net. Taunton head coach Liz Hathaway is expecting big contributions from junior Ashley Amaro and senior Skylar Rheaume as well.

“This season will be different but we are up for the challenge and we are grateful to have a season,” Hathaway said. “The girls have been working hard to keep the season going.  They are also working hard and embracing the 7 vs. 7 format.”

2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Kaitlyn Carney, Sophomore – Franklin

Last season, Franklin poured in the goals on its way to a league title, scoring 30 more than any other team in the Hock, but the Panthers were also a tough team to break down and Kaitlyn Carney’s presence in the midfield was a reason why. As a freshman, Carney gave Franklin a physical presence and an edge in the middle of the field, stepping right in and not backing down against more experienced opponents. Last year’s HockomockSports.com Underclassman of the Year popped up with 14 goals and eight assists and showed off plenty of skill with the ball on her stick but she was also able to break up attacks and cover a lot of ground to prevent quick transitions. Carney’s impressive performances in both attack and defense were a critical component of Franklin’s success last year and as she continues to develop the Panthers know they have a dominating presence in the heart of the team as they try to make it two straight titles.

2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Campbell Compton, Senior – Attleboro

Attleboro entered last fall with a lot of hype and the Bombardiers largely lived up to it, making the playoffs for the first time in four seasons and adding a road win in the tournament. With the graduation of league MVP Anna Beck, senior Campbell Compton could be the person to step into a bigger role this year and keep Attleboro on track. The defensive-minded midfielder provided cover for the back line and showed a keen eye for a pass to spring the Attleboro attack. Compton scored once last season, but also had seven assists and frequently transitioned the team out of its defensive zone with a well-placed hit upfield. Compton’s strength and reading of the game prevents the opposition from quick breaks that could catch out the Bombardiers defense and keep opponents to the outside, away from goal. While Attleboro looks for someone to replace the scoring of last year’s MVP, Compton’s defensive skills and understanding of the game will be crucial to challenging the top teams in the Kelley-Rex.

Maria Femia, Senior – Canton

Canton held off Foxboro by the slimmest of margins to win the Davenport title last season and the Bulldogs will be hoping a lineup filled with experience can outlast the Warriors again this fall. One of the keys to Canton’s success was the development of Maria Femia into one of the most dynamic playmakers in the Hock. Femia scored five goals last year but also recorded a league-high 22 assists, finishing overall as the fourth-leading scorer in the Hock. She was hard to stop with the ball on her stick, weaving her way through opposing defenses to create spaces for her teammates to get close to the goal and finish off her passes. Femia has the rare gift to take on multiple players and keep possession, which allows her teammates to worry more about filling lanes and getting into the right spots. She is also active defensively, chasing the ball down in the attacking half and willing to race back and help her defenders and prevent a counter attack. Femia has turned into one of the league’s top creators and that scoring prowess will be important for the Bulldogs to try and make it three league titles in the last four seasons.







2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Amanda Lewandowski, Senior – Franklin

Franklin scored 91 goals last season and came within two ties of running the table in league play. The Panthers will expect to be just as potent this fall with Amanda Lewandowski back to knock in the goals. The St. Anselm-commit was second in the Hock in 2020 with 30 points, scoring 20 goals and recording 10 assists. Tenacious in winning the ball back high up the field, Lewandowski can turn opponent turnovers into immediate scoring opportunities. She has the vision to pick out a pass for teammates or can drive at the defense with her stick-handling and strength on the ball. Lewandowski also has an eye for a deflection in front, always appearing to be in the right place to knock a teammate’s shot or pass on goal. Franklin will be looking for a second straight league title and Lewandowski’s prolific scoring touch is one of the reasons they remain the team to beat in the Kelley-Rex.

2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Abby Nixon, Senior – King Philip

It was a new-look attack for King Philip last season and the Warriors seemed to get better as the season rolled along and players became more comfortable with new roles. One of the players that stepped up and produced all year for KP was Abby Nixon. The senior forward led the team with nine goals and six assists last fall, providing KP with a consistent outlet on either wing. The speedy forward was always a threat to run at opposing defenses and her ability to produce scoring opportunities from the left side gave the Warriors a different look to the attack. A clever player with the ball on her stick, Nixon could just as quickly turn a defender to create a shooting chance, as find a space to slip passes across to teammates. Her playmaking ability was one of the factors in KP edging Mansfield into second place in the Kelley-Rex. This year, with a little more experience in the system, the Warrriors will be looking to try and unseat Franklin and make a push for the league title, with Nixon’s development as a creator being a key.

Riley O’Connor, Senior – Canton

Offense almost always gets the glory, but one of the reasons that Canton finished as the top team in the Davenport division last season was that the Bulldogs only allowed 16 goals all year. Riley O’Connor became one of the league’s top shot stoppers and was the backstop for that stingy defensive unit. She finished with a goal against average of just 0.85 and recorded 11 shutouts in 19 games. In her second year between the pipes, O’Connor made 145 saves and was a vocal presence in the defensive half of the field, moving her defenders around and giving them confidence that she was back there ready to make the stop. Quick, with great instincts, and not afraid to get into the mix in front of goal, O’Connor limits the chances for attackers to get a stick on crosses and gives them little to aim at when they line up a shot. Canton will try to make it three titles in four years and O’Connor’s presence at the back gives the Bulldogs a good foundation to build another strong season.

Alana Tavares, Senior – Taunton

It feels like Taunton has been counting on Alana Tavares for a very long time. The fifth-year varsity player has been providing big goals since she was an eighth grader and has played multiple positions for the Tigers, stepping up wherever they need her to play. Tavares has dropped back into the midfield or played up top as a forward and, no matter where she has played, continues to produce scoring chances. Last year, she scored eight goals and had five assists, accounting for more than half of her team’s 22 goals. Tavares has the speed and stick skill to keep defenders on their heels and can also pick the right pass to spring a quick counter attack or set up a teammate right in front of goal. Her quickness also helps the Tigers defend from the front, not giving teams time on the ball to find a pass that might lead to a chance, one of the reasons that Taunton only allowed 30 goals last year. Now one of the veterans in the program, Tavares will be expected to lead by example this year and keep firing in the goals to let the Tigers compete with the top teams in the Kelley-Rex.




Abby Varricchione, Senior – Mansfield

Mansfield surprised some people by making a run to the Div. 1 South quarterfinal last year, upsetting No. 2 seed New Bedford along the way, but the Hornets proved to be a thorn in the side of a lot of good teams and will be hoping that experience leads to a title challenge this fall. Abby Varricchione is a good place for Mansfield to start, as her speed and her ability to defend from the front can cause havoc and lead to a number of scoring chances, both for herself and for her teammates. After scoring 11 goals and recording nine assists last season, Varricchione is now up to 30 tallies for her career. Her value to the team extends beyond the stat sheet. Varricchione is tenacious in chasing the ball and trying to pin the opposition in its defensive zone. She sets the tone for the rest of the team, pressuring the ball from sideline to sideline and preventing quick transitions that might catch out the Mansfield defense. The Hornets want to take over Franklin’s spot at the top of the league standings and Varricchione’s effort and skill, along with an experienced group around her, has the potential to cause more problems for opposing teams this season.

2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Ella Waryas, Senior – Foxboro

Foxboro finished just two points behind Canton in last year’s league title race and the Warriors are hoping this season the attack can find the back of the net a few more times to try and get back on top in the division. Ella Waryas will be one of the keys to unlocking the opposition defenses and turning ties into wins this season. The senior midfielder provides energy in the center, covering for the defense and quickly turning defense into attack. Able to carry the ball up the field or pick the right pass to the forwards, Waryas is a versatile player and one that the Warriors count on to control the pace of play. Strong on the ball and a strong reader of the game, she seems to find the spaces where she can be dangerous or that will create openings for teammates. Waryas scored three goals and had four assists last year and she will be expected to continue her growth as a leader and take on more responsibility as Foxboro tries to regain its perch on top of the league.

2020 Hockomock Field Hockey Players to Watch

Maggie Woods, Senior – Oliver Ames

Oliver Ames has moved to the Davenport division this season and the Tigers will want to make an instant impact and make it a three-team race for the league title. Maggie Woods will be a key player for OA to try and push Canton and Foxboro. The do-it-all midfielder helped OA make a late-season run and reach the tournament in 2019 and her ability to break up attacks and provide cover for the defense was instrumental. Woods is also talented on the ball, picking out the right passes to the forwards and wings, getting OA out of its defensive zone and into quick transitions. She had five assists last year, which doubled her career total, and showed her development as an attacking threat. Her constant running ad her speed allowed her to make an impact all over the field, popping up to make big plays at both offensive and defensive corners. As OA look to a new challenge in the Davenport, the Tigers know that they have Woods providing a constant presence in the midfield, making things difficult for opponents and setting the tone for her teammates.
