Girls Hockey Team One Win From Semifinal Berth

And then there was one.

The final Tewksbury team remaining in the postseason skates on Monday night, hoping to continue what's been a surprising run deep into the Division 2 bracket.

The Methuen-Tewksbury girls hockey team thumped Norwell, 10-3, in the preliminary round, cruised past Canton, 7-3, in the first round, and next faces off against Gardner in the quarterfinals.

Gardner opened with a preliminary round bye before it edged Burlington, 2-1, in a shootout.

Monday's quarterfinal round is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. inside Watertown's Ryan Rink. The winner will take on either top-seeded Duxbury or No. 8 Archbishop Williams in the Division 2 semifinal round.

The Methuen-Tewksbury playoff run has been an impressive one, especially given the team's No. 20 seed.
