CANTON - So now there is a tie atop the Hockomock League. So now the Hornets of Mansfield High have an "L" on their tally sheet.

The Canton High field hockey team avenged a 3-1 loss earlier in the season at Mansfield by upstaging the Hornets 3-1 Wednesday. "They beat us to the ball, they came out aggressively," said Mansfield coach Theresa DeGirolamo, whose Hornets fell to 8-1-1 on the season overall, 7-1-1 in the Hockomock League.

Erin Keogh scored the match-tying goal for Mansfield in the fifth minute. Bridgit Davis took a penalty corner, the ball finding its way onto the stick of Meredith Rogazzo, who set up the tally.

Canton had taken the lead in the third minute and regained the lead in the 20th minute. Mansfield created seven penalty corners during the second half, with Jamie Sterling and Davis creating the attack from their midfield perches. "But, we didn't force their goalkeeper to make enough saves," added DeGirolamo.

The Hornets host arch-rival Foxboro Friday. Also in the Hockomock League, the Oliver Ames at Foxboro and Franklin at North Attleboro matches Wednesday were postponed to today due to wet fields. Dighton-Rehoboth 2, Fairhaven 2
