Maddie Murphy is verbally committed to Boston College to play for the Eagles’ soccer team.
Now, her time as a goalie in high school is all but over, as the girls’ soccer team lost a heartbreaker to the Nashoba Chieftains by the score of 1-0. The girls’ season was filled with success, despite the team moving up from Division 3 to Division 1 to face even tougher competition. In the regular season, the Indians went 15-3. The girls throttled the Doherty Highlanders by the score of 9-1 in the first round of the Central Massachusetts district playoffs on November 3rd. “The bigger schools were really strong, but we competed really well with them,” said the senior. “It was really cool to play against a bigger school with a lot of fans.” The next Tuesday saw the girls make the trip to Bolton to face off against Nashoba in the quarterfinals. Unfortunately, the Chieftains would score the only goal of the game, prevailing over the Indians. “It was sad to end in the quarterfinals, but we battled hard against Nashoba,” said Murphy. “We battled really, really well… I was really proud of the girls.” Taking on a leadership role was, for Murphy, what she’ll remember most about the 2017 season. “I was really happy to play with all of these new faces,” said Murphy. “Everyone was really positive. We all had so much fun, and it was just a really good time.”
