A number of teams were in search of a post-season birth this past week so let’s take a look back at some results.

A look back at the week that was in Burlington High School athletics.
Once again Mother Nature has done her best to put the Burlington High winter sports teams on ice with yet another bad snow storm this past week. The Red Devils took the postponements in stride as they have been all winter, though, and the teams that were able to get their games in competed hard. Let’s take a look back at some of the results. Wrestling The Burlington High School wrestling squad headed north on I-93 last weekend to compete at the Capital City Classic in Concord, New Hampshire. Despite an extremely competitive field of wrestlers from both New Hampshire and Massachusetts, a few Red Devils were able to succeed and finish near the tops of their respective weight classes.

Burlington Hockey Outskated by Watertown
Despite a great effort, Burlington High School's girls varsity hockey team fell to Watertown 7-4 Saturday morning.
Despite being behind the bench of a now 2-10 team, Burlington High School girls varsity hockey head coach Kristen Thomas was extremely proud of her team’s effort in a 7-4 loss to Watertown on Saturday morning. “Tough one today,” she said. “When you look at the score sheet, we actually came out flying at the start of every period, and that’s not very typical for us, so that was nice to see. We did a nice job of putting the puck in the net when we had chances, so that’s also nice to see. What really hurt us today was the play of (Watertown’s) sniper Erika Kelly. She’s been dominating the whole league, not just us, so when she shot it usually went in, and that’s something we couldn’t really do anything about." The Red Devils came out …

Though it came down to a single goal, the Burlington High School girls varsity hockey team held strong in a victory over Wilmington Wednesday night. The Lady Red Devils beat Wilmington 4-2 at Ristuccia Arena. “When we came back and scored a goal, it kind of took the win out of their sails,” said Burlington head coach Kristen Thomas of the game. “We generated some offense a little more naturally. I’d like to see us not keep chucking it to the front of the net though. We have to work on finishing.” If the game against Burlington is a sign of things to come, Wilmington girls hockey head coach Joe McMahon is happily looking forward to next season. Wilmington nearly tied the score in the final minutes in the third period against a team they …
