Mooreland Hill School played The Ethel Walker school on home turf Tuesday, handily winning the field hockey game 6-1. Shannon Martin, a fifth grader and resident of Bristol, scored the first goal of her career. Also of worthy mention, the five solid saves made by goalie Sierra Reynolds of Meriden. The team will be participating in the field hockey Jamboree at The Bement School in Deerfield Massachusetts this Saturday, October 22. The annual pilgrimage is one of our school’s best traditions. With approximately fourteen teams competing from New England, the day promises to be full of exiting games, fabulous food, and fun for all. Play commences at 9 a.m.
