Fenwick Improves to 3-1 on the Season

The Fenwick girls’ hockey team came out strong in their game against Naper Valley on Sunday night, despite skating with a short bench of just eight players and a goalie.

Fenwick opened the scoring late in the first period when junior Kate Mulvihill netted an unassisted goal to give the Friars a lead they would hold for the rest of the game.

Early in the second period, junior Zoe Rose extended the lead with Fenwick’s second goal. Near the end of the period, Madelyn Pasterick put Naper Valley on the board with an unassisted goal.

In the third period, freshman Libby Boveri added Fenwick’s third goal of the night off a nice feed from fellow freshman Gabby Nitti.

Sophomore goaltender Mickey Romero anchored the defense with 18 saves in the winning effort.

The Friars will look to continue their strong start when they face Maine on Wednesday, October 22, at 8 p.m. at Niles Ice Arena.
