Wiscasset girls soccer ties one, loses one
Last year, the Wiscasset High School girls varsity soccer team announced its arrival as one of the teams to beat with a September victory over Western Class C powerhouse St. Dom's.
On Monday, Oct. 6, St. Dom's got a little revenge and regained its status near the top of the division.
The Saints (9-2) retained sole possession of third place in Western Class C with a 4-0 victory over the Wiscasset Wolverines (3-7-1). Wiscasset remained in 11th place in Western Class C with the loss.
With the regular season wrapping up, Wiscasset will be able to jostle for position in the last week of the season. The team has a Friday, Oct. 10 match-up with winless Telstar (0-11) then hosts Winthrop (1-10) at home on Oct. 13. There will be an Oct. 15 match-up with Hyde before the regular season ends Friday, Oct. 17 against Hall-Dale (7-3).
The current standings have Madison (11-0) in first place, while Monmouth Academy (10-0-1) remain in second.
Wiscasset, Oak Hill tie
In a double overtime duel, it turned out nothing could separate Wiscasset and Oak Hill on Thursday, October 2 when the teams tied at 2-2.
Neither team scored in the first half, but Wiscasset was dominant. Oak Hill drew first blood in the second on a Toni Pushard-Hart goal, but Wiscasset freshman Grace Webber scored a bouncing goal to tie the game at 1.
Oak Hill didn't wait long to regain the edge: Jamie Prue, operating after a handball penalty, kicked home a goal to give the Raiders a 2-1 advantage. Wiscasset then received the help of handball, as Miranda McIntire scored on a penalty kick following a penalty.
Neither team could net a goal during both overtimes, which ended the game at a draw.
Wiscasset's Kayla Gordon had 11 saves on 13 shots, while Oak Hill's Anna Dodge collected 13 saves on 15 shots.
