After a winless season last year, field hockey coach Jennifer Wallingford hopes that this year will be different. On September 9, they got a chance to start that as Hudson won their first game against Gardner 2-0. The team is playing in a new league this year after much of Hudson athletics dropped to Division C. In joining Division C, the Hawks face new competitors, such as Sutton, Oxford, and Assabet, and teams Hudson hasn’t played for years, such as Gardner, Oakmont, and Bromfield. The team is made of eight juniors and four sophomores. Already, the younger members have helped the team; in Hudson’s game against Gardner sophomores Emily White and Anna Bohn scored goals. The Hawks play their first six games of the field hockey season away, but on Friday, September 23, at 4:00 they play their first home game against Tyngsborough.
