Hayfield Sports Roundup: Hayfield Goes 9-4

Varsity Field Hockey (9-4-1):

There isn’t a hotter National District field hockey program than Hayfield’s. The Hawks currently own a six-game win streak and haven’t lost a match since Sept. 2. The team enjoyed a 2-1 road win over Thomas Jefferson (5-6) on Friday, Sept. 30 and a 1-0 overtime home win against Yorktown (10-4) on Tuesday, Oct. 4. Senior forward Hannah Wilson scored the game-winning goal on an assist from junior forward Elizabeth Sanie.

With only three games left in the regular season, Hayfield boasts a 4-0 National District record. The team travels to Falls Church (1-7) on Thursday, Oct. 6 and hosts Washington-Lee (4-6) on Monday, Oct. 10.

J.V. Field Hockey (0-10-1):

As the season nears its end, the Hawks will attempt to grab their first win. Despite the team’s struggles, wins against Falls Church on Oct. 6 and Washington-Lee on Oct. 11 will end the season a positive note.

However, players and fans should expect the win drought to end this Thursday, Oct. 6, as the team travels to Wakefield (0-5). Wakefield has scored just 51 points this season while their defense has allowed 241. Barring a miracle, the Hawks should win Thursday’s game and move to 3-3 on the season.
