More Snow
The Berkshires received several inches of snow this morning, but not enough to close schools, unlike yesterday's sleety mess. Temperatures will drop into the 20s this afternoon. A few more snow showers are expected through the weekend.
We have reports that the roads are very slippery to take care in the evening commute. |

MCLA Women's Soccer Improves to 4-1 - September 15, 2008
North Adams - MCLA sophomore forward Jess Tietgens (Stamford, VT) continued her scoring ways adding two more goals to her team leading seven in this afternoon's 3-1 win over visiting Mount Holyoke College (1-3).
The Lyons jumped on the board first in the 19th minute on a goal by Jacquelyn Archibald (Marshfield, MA) while Lauren Orr (Fullerton, CA) collected the assist. It took the Trailblazers 17 minutes to answer back when junior back Gaby Fernandez (New Hyde Park, NY) found Tietgens on a through pass for a breakaway and the neutralizer. MCLA played a bit flat in the first half, but the play of goalkeeper Cece Von Tiesenhausen-Hush (Arlington, VT) kept the game close for MCLA.
After the break, MCLA seemed refreshed and picked their game up a notch. The combination of Taylor Kenyon (N. Bennington, VT), Jade Prickett (Westhampton, MA) and Kaitlyn Dano (Schohaire, NY) in the midfield closed down the Lyons' attack. Mount Holyoke did have two very close attempts. The first came half way through the second half off a corner kick, but Maggie Shea (West Springfield, MA) headed the ball out filling in behind Hush. The second came with time winding down and a score of 2-1 in favor of the home team when Prickett hustled back behind Hush to head a sur goal off the line. Both attempts would have been game breakers for the Lyons.
The tie was finally broken in the 72nd minute when again the combination of Fernandez and Tietgens struck. Forward Jackie Nash (Norton, MA) dropped a pass to Fernandez who drove a ball into the box where Tietgens volleyed it right into the goal past a diving Elaine Harvey (Boston, MA). The Trailblazers kept pushing for the third goal and they finally got it six minutes later when they were awarded a throw-in deep in the Lyons half. Prickett launched a throw that was flicked on to by Danielle Parenteau (Southampton, MA) to Kenyon who drove home her first goal of the season and the third goal of the game.
Harvey finished with seven saves and Hush finished with 11 saves.
Both teams are off until Wednesday when MCLA travels to Castleton State College and Mount Holyoke will host Conn College. |
