Friday was a productive day for the Marauders, with the Varsity, JV and Reserve teams all playing well and wining at home. The Varsity beat Nashua South 4-1, with Asa Berolzheimer leading the way, scoring the first goal and assisting on two others. Sam Strohbehn had a goal and an assist. Both Jonah Levine and Seth Stadheim opened their accounts with goals, and Jack Acker collected his first assist. Patrick Logan had several saves to earn his first Varsity win in goal. The Marauders are now 3-1-1 on the season.
The Junior Varsity played on their home field at HHS for the first time this year, and beat Nashua South 3-0. Hanover led 1-0 at halftime and pulled away in the second half with two more goals. David Seigne scored twice for the Marauders, bringing his season total to five. Benny Gantrish had his first goal of the season. Somehow Nashua South managed to contain Roger Danilek. Owen Brooks picked up the shutout for the Marauders, who are now 3-2 on the season.
The Reserves, resplendent in their new home uniforms, played steady team defense and emerged with a 2-0 win over the Newport High School Varsity. It's a small school that still does not have NHIAA status for the team, but it's the best they have, and it made for an excellent match. George Geraghty set up Kaz Matsuoka for the first goal, and Hanover led 1-0 at halftime, thanks to the defensive work of Wilson Rimberg and Avery Wallis in front of Arturo Johnson in goal. Jasper Zeng took over as goalkeeper in the second half and showed continued growth, sharing in his first shutout. Hanover's pressure on Newport resulted in a second goal authored by Pierro Mayo, one of several freshmen who contributed strongly. Friday's win was the first for Coach Erik McEwen.
The Reserves and Freshmen will travel to Exeter on Saturday. The bus will leave at 8:30. Both games will be at Exeter High School. It's at 1 Blue Hawk Drive, Exeter, NH 03833 for you GPS folks. Take Rt. 101 West from Rt. 93 in Manchester. Take Exit 8 on Rt. 101, turn left at the end of the ramp, and then right on Rt. 27 as soon as you cross over Rt. 101. You'll see the famous New England Dragway. Follow Rt. 27 for a mile and Exeter High is on the left. It's a little bigger than HHS, as you'll see. The Reserve game is on the field near the HS track. The Freshman game follows the Exeter High JV Football game in famous Bill Ball Stadium, the site of Hanover's 2013 State Championship. Estimated return time is 3:00 p.m. We'll have snacks, but you may want to pack a lunch. We will not stop for fast food.
