The Livermore Falls field hockey team toiled all season long toward a perfect record. The Andies fell a single game short of that goal and, at 13-1, missed out on the top spot in Western Class C, finishing in second behind Telstar, which also finished at 13-1. The team’s reward for a strong second-place finish? […]

Field hockey: Telstar wins MVC title
LISBON — The Telstar field hockey squad posted a goal in each half Wednesday, enough to defeat Winthrop 2-0 and claim the 2010 MVC Championship. The Rebels (13-1) received one goal from Katie Sumner and the other from Kayla Merrill. To make sure her team came out on top, Merrill also contributed an assist on […]
High school football: Ramblers cut Raiders loose
WINTHROP — Derek Pamphrey is just making up for lost time. After missing the majority of his first three seasons, the senior tailback/safety just continues to turn in solid performances week after week. Friday night he returned an interception 35 yards to set up one score and scored the clinching touchdown to help Winthrop fight […]
High school football: Double vision in Winthrop
WINTHROP — One of the unspoken, unexplainable bonds between twins is that uncanny ability to finish each other’s sentences. Perhaps the secret to Hunter and Travis Sherman’s success is that Travis provides the punctuation. OK, and most of the verbiage, too. Hey, guys, is there any sibling rivalry when you walk onto the gridiron for […]
Field hockey notes: Tigers’ hopes high
With just two games to play, the Jay Tigers appear to have sewn up a playoff spot. But it’s close. “It would help to win another, for sure,” Jay coach Jane DiPompo said. “Both games we have left are huge.” This, of course, after a 4-1 victory on the road at Lisbon that catapulted the […]
Field hockey: Andies go long, reel in Ramblers
WINTHROP – Taking one for the team isn’t merely a baseball concept. It can work in field hockey, too. Liz Cote didn’t score the game-winning goal or even register an official assist Monday. Her injury timeout, however, probably played a roundabout role in giving Livermore Falls the burst of energy it needed for Kathryn Ventrella’s […]
High school football: Ramblers run over Black Bears
WINTHROP — For as much success as Winthrop has had this season, Saturday’s opening quarter was just about as ugly as it gets. On four first-quarter possessions, the Ramblers lost a pair of fumbles, threw an interception and punted after four downs. Yet, 45 seconds into second quarter, thanks to their lock-down defense, the Ramblers […]
High school football: Ramblers pass test, blank Andies
LIVERMORE FALLS – It’s a picture that the few opponents tough enough to hang with the Winthrop High School football team an entire night are going to see frequently as the grass turns to mud this fall. Ryan Conant and Derek Pamphrey united in a chest-bumping, head-slapping embrace on the Ramblers sideline Friday. Each was […]
Field hockey notes: Williams adjusts quickly for EL
No matter the sport, the last line of defense — the goaltender — is about as key a position as you can find. With one of the more solid teams he’s seen emerge from the halls of Edward Little High School in quite a few years, coach Greg Perkins was left wondering if what he […]
Football: Winthrop outruns Sacopee Valley
WINTHROP — Ryan Conant ran for three touchdowns in the first quarter and freshman Zach Glazier added three scoring runs of his own as Winthrop cruised to a 55-0 win over Sacopee Valley in a Class C Campbell Conference in Friday night football action. Conant rumbled for a 40-yard score on just the second play […]
