What a fun day of field hockey in the NHHS stadium on Davidson Field! We are most grateful to Booster President Jeff Chandler for all of his hard work in getting the field ready, as well as Assistant Principal Dave Martinez & Athletic Director Mike Zimmerman for getting us permission to play in the stadium. Special thanks to Anne Layton for putting together the senior flowers and to all of the fans for their support and cheers! Now back to the game recap:

Newport Harbor girls’ varsity field hockey team hosted Edison at Davidson Field Tuesday, dispatching the Chargers 5-0.  Megan Case scored twice along with Taylor Cordeiro, Stephanie Storch and Sophie Evans, as the Sailors held Edison without a shot on goal until the closing minutes of the game.  Courtney McIntosh and Madeline Storch excelled in the midfield and on defense, according to coach Amanda Boyer.  The Sailors (20-2, 8-1 in league) finish up the regular season Thursday at home (Harper Field) against Fountain Valley.

Newport Harbor junior varsity field hockey defeated Edison 3-0 to secure a first place standing in league. Goals scored by Taury Hlinka, Jill Messersmith, and Hannah Beek.
