• Despite roster turnover, No. 2 Malden Catholic girls' hockey keeps getting it done (bostonglobe.com) — Malden Catholic’s girls’ hockey team is off to a strong start despite major roster turnover, leaning on a fast-paced style and a standout top line featuring Abbie Poole. In a recent win, Poole opened the scoring early and teammates Nevin Mustone and Megan VanDorpe added key goals, while goalie Izzy Silva helped the Lancers hold off a late push as younger players continue to grow into bigger roles.
