Girls Continue Strong Season with Win Over D-S

Editor's Note: The following was submitted by Westwood High School girls varsity ice hockey coach Rick Chrusciel.

After a scoreless first period Monday night against Dover-Sherborn, the Westwood Wolverines opened the scoring on a goal by Kelly Healey early in the second period.

Dover Sherborn got that back late in the second period on a score by Liz Keohane.

Westwood then took the lead early in the third period on goal by freshman Kat Heidleberger off a nice feed from fellow freshman Lulu Swatz. 

Swartz picked up a loose puck at center ice and raced down the wing, then made a pass across the goal to Heidleberger who tapped it into the net.

Ela Hazar then put the game away for Westwood taking a pass from Kelly Healey and putting it in the net for a 3-1 lead.

With senior Courtney Fay out, sophomore Siobhan Burke, playing in her third straight game made several outstanding saves to make Westwood's 3-1 lead hold up.

With the win, Westwood improved to 7-1-1.
