Freshmen Beat Bedford 3-2; Host Central Saturday

The Marauder Freshmen continued their hot start to the season with a wire to wire victory over Bedford on Friday afternoon.  Shrugging off their second long road trip in three days, Hanover took a 2-0 lead on a pair of goal by Dillon Bradley, the first on a corner kick from Liam Collins, and the second a shot from 25 meters that Dillon lofted over the manchild in the Bedford goal.  The Bulldogs pulled a goal back to make the score 2-1, but Nico Mayo-Pushee toe-poked a ball past the keeper for a 3-1 lead.  Bedford came within a goal again before the end of the half on a far post conversion, but that was the end of the scoring.

Hanover's defense tightened in front of Sam Gallimore in goal and the Marauders continue to press all over the field, keeping Bedford at bay throughout the rest of the half and putting a bow on a satisfying victory.

There will be little time to savor the win.  The Marauders return to action Saturday morning with a 10:00 kickoff at Merriman-Branch Field against Manchester Central.  Players should report at 9:00 sharp in white so that they can sit for their team photo.  The Breakfast Club!
