SLIDESHOW: Andover defeats Methuen in girls hockey
CARL RUSSO PHOTOS:Forced to play an abbreviated hockey schedule, getting off to a hot start could supply all the momentum needed for a successful 12-game season.
And no team in the area has started off faster than the Andover girls, who have scored 14 goals in their first two games.
Matching their output in a season-opening victory over Central Catholic, the Warriors picked up a 7-1 win against Methuen/Tewksbury on Wednesday, January 13. Andover has dominated its first two to the tune of 14-3.
“It’s looking really good,” said returning Eagle-Tribune All-Star Lauren Adams, who recorded a hat trick Wednesday. “We have a lot of new players to go with a lot of returning good players. We all work together well in practices and games, so it’s going real good so far.” 1/13/2021
