Attleboro girls edged in finale
ATTLEBORO - Amanda Aguiar scored a goal with 3:30 remaining in the match as the Durfee High girls' soccer team edged Attleboro, 2-1, in a non-league match on Tuesday afternoon.
The Hilltoppers held a 1-0 advantage at the half, scoring at 15:25 of the first half. In the second half, the Bombardiers tied the match at 1-1 on a goal by Sarah Jennings, off a nice crossing pass from Kristen Mahoney, at 24:17 of the session.
That score held up until the final minutes of the match when Aguiar scored a goal to give the visitors the lead for good.
Mahoney, a junior midfielder, played well in the match for Attleboro as did junior sweeper Jenna Costa and sophomore midfielder Jessica Jeffrey.
Despite having a 6-12 overall record following the loss to Durfee, Attleboro still gained a berth in the state tournament by finishing in second place in the Old Colony League with a 4-4 mark. The tournament pairings will be announced on Thursday.
