No. 1 Glenelg, No. 8 Hereford stay perfect, while seven other ranked teams fall in field hockey
It's already been quite a week of local field hockey upsets, and there are still a few days to go.
On Wednesday, No. 5 South River beat No.2 Severna Park, 2-1 in double overtime; Mount De Sales upset No. 4 Westminster, 2-1; Archbishop Spalding knocked off No. 6 Bryn Mawr, 3-2 in overtime; and C. Milton Wright beat Harford County rival and No. 12 Patterson Mill, 5-3.
Earlier this week, No. 3 Garrison Forest lost to Roland Park, 5-3; and No. 14 Howard lost to Marriotts Ridge, 1-0.
All of which appears to prove the adage that, on any given night, any team can beat another.
Only a few top teams failed to play along with the upsets, chief among them the only two undefeated teams left in the Top 15 poll. No. 1 Glenelg (9-0), beat No. 10 River Hill, 10-1, and Wilde Lake, 17-0, with its leading scorer Alyssa Parker sitting out most of those two games.
And No. 8 Hereford (9-0), beat No. 13 Fallston, 2-1 in overtime, and Towson, 5-2.
