Girls’ hockey gets D-II’s No. 5 seed
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury Union High School girls’ hockey team finished the season at 9-11 and was awarded the No. 5 seed for the Division II playoffs. The Tigers were set to visit No. 4 Harwood/Northfield (10-9-1) at 5 p.m. on Wednesday after deadline.
The Tigers and Highlanders split two games this winter, each team winning on the other’s ice. Wednesday’s winner will almost certainly take on No. 1 Woodstock (18-1) in the next round at a time to be announced.
Back on Feb. 23, in their final regular-season game, Hana Doria’s goal in the first minute of overtime gave the Tigers a 3-2 victory over visiting Missisquoi (6-14).
Goals in the first period from Erin Mulcahy (assisted by Avery Gale and Lia Calzini) and from Gale (assisted by Calzini and Mulcahy) had helped MUHS to a 2-1 lead. But T-Brid Rory Schreindorfer scored late in the third period to knot the score. Tiger goalie Ruby Hubbell made 16 saves, and Missisquoi’s Karissa LeClair made 25.
