Nauset football finally broke through against Nantucket, snagging their first win of the season with a huge 22-6 victory! The Warriors, now at 1-4, just snapped a brutal four-game losing streak, and honestly, it felt like a massive weight lifted off their shoulders.

Warrior’s Offense Finds Its Spark

This win wasn’t just a win, it was a statement. Quarterback Fin Parker dropped a five-yard touchdown pass to Karson Gilley, capping off an absolutely monster 99-yard drive. Think about that: 99 freakin’ yards! That kind of grit and execution is exactly what the Warriors needed, especially after only scoring twice in their last four games. Nantucket, now sitting at 1-3, has dropped three straight themselves, so this was a tough matchup for both squads looking for a turnaround. This is the kind of breakthrough that can totally shift a team’s momentum for the rest of the year.

Girls Soccer Squads Making Moves

Over on the pitch, the Nauset girls soccer team is absolutely on fire! They crushed Dennis-Yarmouth 4-1, extending their unbeaten run to five games and pushing their win streak to three straight. Evelyn Vaillancourt, Eloise MacMillan (who also had an assist), Stella Hurvitz, and Caroline Kennally all found the back of the net. Caroline Bothfeld, Vivienne Ryder, and Emi Valli each chipped in with assists too. Vaillancourt got them on the board first, but Jiana Forskin from Dennis-Yarmouth capitalized on a momentary lapse in focus to tie it up. But then MacMillan thumped one into the opposite side netting to restore the lead, and Hurvitz and Kennally sealed the deal in the second half. These Warriors are now 7-1-2 and looking like a real force.

And get this: the Bourne girls soccer team also grabbed their first win of the season, a massive 1-0 shutout against Southeastern! The Canalmen, now at 1-8-0, finally broke through and got their first clean sheet in the process. Talk about a well-deserved moment. Nantucket girls soccer also turned things around, halting a three-match losing streak with a 2-0 clean sheet win against Sturgis West. Madden Myers in goal was huge, and Harper LeBrecht (who had an assist) and Ruby Steadman owned the midfield. Emma Woodbury scored both goals, with Grace Schroder grabbing an assist on one and LeBrecht on the other. That’s a huge bounce-back for them.

Looking ahead, Nauset football just got that confidence boost they desperately needed. Can they keep that offensive fire going after that 99-yard drive? For Bourne girls soccer, that first win and clean sheet is massive, a real building block for the rest of their season. It’s all about carrying that momentum forward now, you know?
