MANCHESTER CENTER — Host Burr & Burton topped the Otter Valley Union High School field hockey team on Thursday, 4-2, as the Bulldogs continued their climb up the Division II standings with their fifth straight win.
The result left both teams at 6-3, but the Bulldogs passed the Otters in the point standings to move into second place behind No. 1 Mount Abraham (6-0-2). As of Thursday Brattleboro (4-2-1) was in third, followed by OV in fourth and Woodstock (5-2-2) in fifth in a close race.

BBA’s Julie Fillion evened the score two minutes into the second half and the score stayed deadlocked until the late going, when Fillion and Charleigh Carthy each scored in the final 3:07.
