Field hockey falls to Poolesville 5-2 in season opener

The field hockey team fell 5-2 to the Poolesville Falcons in a hard fought game Sept. 5, beginning its season with an 0-1 record.

Forward Allie Boyan scored both goals, one in each half. But after a strong start in the first half, the Vikes ran out of steam about ten minutes into the second half, when Poolesville got its lead, and the Vikes couldn’t catch back up.

The Vikes look to level out their record Sept. 12 as they travel to face the 1-0-1 Springbrook Blue Devils.
