Field Hockey All-State: Ducharme, Bilodeau, Harrington highlight Division I
Several Division I locals were honored by the New Hampshire Field Hockey Coaches Association in their annual All-State teams.
Nashua North field hockey got a big boost with senior midfielder Molly Ducharme a Division I First Teamer, a rarity for a program that has struggled the way the Titans have the last few years. Ducharme just signed a letter of intent on Monday to play at Wingate (N.C.) University.
Division I contender Bishop Guertin had its share of representatives on the team. BG’s Maddie Harrington and Sophie Bilodeau, both seniors, were the other local Division I First-Teamers. Merrimack’s Jackie Hayes and Nashua South’s Karina O’Donnell were on Second Team while several locals were Honorable Mentions.
