Scarborough swept into Buxton Saturday morning, unleashing a torrent of goals on the Scots, who found themselves unable to keep their heads above the level of the Red Storm surge. Victoria Timm put Scarborough on the board early, and Lily Nygrens mid-game hat trick all but sank any Bonny Eagle chance of fighting back. The Scots ultimately fell, 10-0, to the Red Storm. <\/p>\n
Struggling Bonny Eagle, ranked 16th at present, slip to 1-10. Scarborough, on the other hand, continues its march across the face of western Maine, moving to 11-0 and tightening their grip on first place. <\/p>\n
[We] spread the field well and looked to transition the ball with precision passes, using the space to [our] advantage, Red Storm head coach Kerry Mariello said. Once the ball was in our offensive zone, we took advantage of scoring opportunities. This was a well-balanced victory for [us]. <\/p>\n
Timms goal came early, on a Kaitlyn Prince assist. Soon after, Abby Walker made it 2-0 all by her lonesome. Emma Crovo from Maddie Dobecki pushed the Red Storm another notch further ahead before Nygrens take-no-prisoners rampage on assists by Ashley Levesque, Sydney Rusak and Dobecki juiced their advantage to 6-0. <\/p>\n
The Red Storm have almost exclusively pick any appropriately destructive-sounding, storm-related verb blown away their opposition this season. Wrecked them, swamped them, whatever. In those 11 wins, Scarborough have scored 77 goals, and allowed just one, to No. 6 Sanford (7-3). Like their namesakes, the Spartans made their stand, dealt their blow, but ultimately fell in this case, 2-1 to an overwhelming, invading force. <\/p>\n
Similarly, by the time the Red Storm had finished in Buxton, theyd added four more goals by Dobecki (from Walker), Kristen Murray (Kristen Levesque), Ashley Levesque (Lucy Bogdanovich) and Kristen Levesque (Murray) all while holding the Scots silent. <\/p>\n
Its difficult to see how the Red Storm wont go category five through the playoffs and into the State Game, where Skowhegan emerged from the East last year to snuff them. 2014s crop of top teams from across the way again includes the Indians, as well as Lawrence and Messalonskee. All three teams are 10-1, and have exactly the same Heal Point indices. Whoever takes part, the battle for the title this Nov. 1 should be art in motion. <\/p>\n
And lest anyone think its too early yet to speak of the playoffs: there are only three regular-season games remaining on Scarboroughs schedule: home against McAuley (Oct. 8, 6 p.m.); away at Cheverus (Oct. 10, time TBD); and home against Deering (Oct. 14, 6 p.m.). <\/p>\n
Similarly, Bonny Eagle has just a trio of games left to play: at South Portland (Oct. 8, 4 p.m.); home against Thornton (Oct. 10, 4 p.m.); and at Westbrook (Oct. 14, 4 p.m.). <\/p>\n
