Harford Tech field hockey team plays well in back-to-back penalty-stroke games
This has been one long week for Harford Tech's field hockey team.
The Cobras played back-to-back games Monday and Tuesday. Both games went to penalty strokes after double-overtime periods.
Harford Tech's Monday game with Bohemia Manor ended in a 3-3 tie, while Tuesday's game with Aberdeen wound up in the Eagles' win column. Aberdeen, which tied the game with nine seconds left in regulation, won 3-2 on strokes.
“In the game with Bo Manor, both teams played very well and the game deserved to be ended in a tie," Harford Tech coach Amanda Sheldon said. "Against Aberdeen, we played a hard-fought game, but we were tired from Monday and we just couldn't pull it off."
Lyndsey Endlich scored twice in each game for Harford Tech (2-1-1). Taylor Bethke was in goal both days. She had 12 saves -- including four of five shots in the shootout against Bo Manor. Against Aberdeen (4-2), Bethke had six saves.
