MANCHESTER, Vt. — The Windsor field hockey team is headed to the Division III championship game after defeating Missisquoi Valley 5-0 on Tuesday.
Hannah Wood led the offense with two goals and an assist followed by Alyssa Slocum and Angelina Bigwood with a goal and an assist each. Karen Kapuscinski finished the day with the last goal. Peyton Richardson contributed an assist.
Slocum’s goal came off from a penalty stroke.
“We practiced on the field turf in Hanover to get ready for turf field conditions,” said Slocum after the team’s recent game against Montpelier. “Coach Wood wanted us to be ready for a fast game and it was good to have those practices on turf.”
