Dartmouth, Westport, Fairhaven and GNB win state soccer games as Somerset Berkley field hockey rolls on

DARTMOUTH Five South Coast teams won state tournament games on Monday, Nov. 9, and four of them are boys soccer teams now one win away from the Round of 8 in their divisions.

No. 12 Dartmouth held off No. 21 East Longmeadow 4-3 at home in Division 2, and No. 22 Westport won at No. 11 Clinton on penalty kicks in Division 4. In Division 3, No. 9 Fairhaven shut out Dover-Sherborn 1-0 and No. 6 GNB Voc-Tech blanked Belchertown 3-0, and all four soccer games were in the Round of 32. In field hockey, Somerset Berkley, the No. 4 seed in Division 2, beat No. 13 Doherty of Worcester 5-0 in the Round of 16 and is among the last eight teams standing.

Fairhaven plays at Nantucket on Wednesday, Nov. 11, Veterans Day, by its own schedule, and Dartmouth and GNB Voc-Tech both play at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12.

Somerset Berkley: 17 shots, none against

Somerset Berkley outshot Doherty 17-0 at Hanson Memorial Stadium, the Boston Globe reported, and sisters Emma and Olivia Cormier combined for three of the five goals. Senior Ryan Crook, the South Coast Conference MVP each of the last two seasons, had an assist and scored a late goal on a rush from midfield, the Globe reported, which gave him 201 career points. Somerset Berkley is going for a third straight state title, and coach Jen Crook has won 464 games and four state championships in 31 seasons, the Globe reported.

The team went 15-2-1 in the regular season, beat No. 29 Wayland 11-1 at home in the Round of 32 on Thursday, Nov. 5, and has now scored 16 goals in two tournament games while allowing one. Doherty reached Somerset by beating No. 20 Dartmouth 4-0 that same day, by the MIAA bracket.

Somerset Berkley will play the winner of No. 5 Hingham and No. 12 Newburyport in the quarterfinal. The Globe reported the quarterfinal will probably be played at Hanson on Saturday, Nov. 14.

Dartmouth outlasts East Longmeadow

Dartmouth went into the tournament at 11-2-3 and won a seven-goal game against East Longmeadow at Dartmouth Memorial Stadium, 4-3. East Longmeadow came 115 miles for it, the longest Division 2 road trip the Globe found in its tournament preview, and the same preview picked Dartmouth as one of the division's potential dark horses.

Caleb DaSilva had five goals and an assist in two games against Bishop Stang and Apponequet in the week of Oct. 26 to Nov. 1, and Logan Stott scored twice against Stang, the Standard-Times reported when it named both for its SouthCoast Athlete of the Week ballot.

Dartmouth plays at No. 5 Marshfield on Thursday, Nov. 12, at 6 p.m. at James G. Anderson Field, by the MIAA and Dartmouth's own schedule. Marshfield went 15-1-2 and beat Grafton 5-0 on Monday, and the Globe named its senior forward, Brady Hanson, among the players to watch in Division 2.

Fairhaven turns away last year's semifinalist

Fairhaven's 1-0 win at Fairhaven High School's stadium ended the season for a Dover-Sherborn team that reached the Division 3 semifinals last fall before losing 2-1 to eventual champion Norwell. Dover-Sherborn, the No. 24 seed, had beaten No. 41 Montachusett 3-0 on Saturday, Nov. 7, to get to Fairhaven.

Fairhaven, 12-3-2, closed the regular season with a 5-2 win at Bishop Stang on Oct. 31 and a 1-0 win over Westport on Nov. 2. Dan Burgess scored three goals against Stang and Dylan Pimentel had a goal and an assist, the Standard-Times reported. Fairhaven's Matt De Medeiros won the paper's SouthCoast Boys Athlete of the Week vote the week before with 62% after two goals and two assists in two games, and Pimentel had won it earlier in the fall.

Fairhaven's schedule puts the Round of 16 game at No. 8 Nantucket on Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 2 p.m. Nantucket beat No. 25 Pentucket 5-1 on Monday, and the Globe named junior forward Stoyan Popov among the Division 3 players to watch.

GNB Voc-Tech starts another run

GNB Voc-Tech went all the way to the Division 3 state final last fall and lost 1-0 to Norwell at Curry College on Nov. 22, 2025. This fall the team went 14-2-1, earned the No. 6 seed, and opened with Monday's 3-0 win over Belchertown at Jeffrey E. Riley Stadium. Belchertown, the No. 27 seed, had beaten No. 38 Salem 2-1 in the preliminary round.

The Globe named senior midfielder Matteo Pacheco among Division 3's players to watch and pointed to a possible quarterfinal rematch of last year's final. Sebastian Lourenco scored his first varsity goal for the 1-0 win over Apponequet in the week of Oct. 26 to Nov. 1, the Standard-Times reported.

GNB Voc-Tech is home again Thursday, Nov. 12, at 6 p.m. at Riley Stadium, against the winner of No. 11 Scituate and No. 22 Auburn, who play Tuesday at 5 p.m. at Scituate, by the MIAA bracket and GNB's schedule. Scituate is the team GNB Voc-Tech beat 3-1 in last year's semifinal.

Westport wins it in a shootout

Westport and Clinton were tied 2-2 after regulation and two 10-minute overtimes on Clinton High School's Veterans Stadium field, and Westport won the shootout 5-4, East Bay Newspapers reported. The MIAA bracket records it as a 3-2 Westport win. Clinton had gone 14-2-1, and the Globe's preview had listed No. 22 Westport, 12-3-3 in the regular season, among the lower seeds that could deliver stunners.

Senior striker CJ LeBlanc tied the game 1-1 on a penalty kick in the first half, East Bay reported. Clinton went ahead 2-1 in the second half on its second penalty kick of the night, and a Westport freshman midfielder headed in a LeBlanc free kick to tie it again. Tiago Branco, Gavin DaSilva, Tiago Rodrigues, Noah Jedrey and Alex Ribeiro all scored in the shootout, and head coach Chris Parker credited his goalkeeper with two big saves that preserved the win, after 10 saves through regulation and overtime, East Bay reported.

Two days earlier, Rodrigues, a senior, scored three goals in a 6-0 preliminary round win over No. 43 Brooke Charter on the Atlantis Charter turf, East Bay Newspapers reported. Junior center back Jackson Chase and senior midfielders Gavin DaSilva and Tiago Branco also scored, LeBlanc set up Rodrigues for his first goal, and Westport's goalkeeper needed one save for his 11th shutout of the season.

"We are spreading the ball around and everyone is scoring goals," LeBlanc told East Bay Newspapers after that game. "That's what you need to do to win a state championship."

Westport plays the winner of No. 6 Manchester Essex and No. 27 Hampshire Regional, who meet Tuesday at 5 p.m. at Manchester Essex, in the Division 4 Round of 16.
