The Westbrook girls’
soccer team had yet another tough season and finished 1-14-1 but brought more
to the table than in previous years under new coach Brian Moore, including hard
work that equaled to many of their games ending in one-goal losses.
“Our game against
East Hampton went into overtime,” said Moore.
“The girls clearly played their best against a great team.”
Leading the Knights
on the field as captains were seniors Alyssa Bernstein and Shannon
Godiksen, as well as junior Brittany Moore. Moore earned First Team All-Shoreline honors
and Bernstein earned Honorable Mention. Brittany Palermo was a Second Team
All-Shoreline pick while goalkeeper Tara Higgins was also Honorable Mention.
“Hopefully we have a
larger team next year, giving us more players to utilize,” said Moore. “This year, being
my first year, I pushed the girls, but not hard enough. Next year we will be a
different team.”
Westbrook season
reviews will continue in next week’s issue.
