Soccer: Spartans see win streak snapped but unbeaten streak remains

St. Mary?s 12-game winning streak is history. However, the Spartans still have a 13-game unbeaten streak.The Spartans managed a 1-1 tie Tuesday with Archbishop Williams. And even though coach Mike D?Agostino feels the referees missed an offside call that helped the Bishops get their only goal, he doesn?t feel like making a huge issue out of it.?We came out flat,” he said, “and we couldn?t put the ball in, and that?s what happens. They got a late break and took advantage of it.”St. Mary?s took a 1-0 lead when Kevin Esper scored a second-half goal, assisted by P.J. Hatchouel. Late in the game, however, Williams scored.?It was kind of a controversial goal because everybody thought there was an off-side call that the referees missed.”D?Agostino said Esper, George Olu, keeper Eric Whitcomb and Dan Hennessey played well for the 12-1-1 Spartans, who haven?t lost since their first game — the first-round game of the Lynn City Invitational.Lynnfield 2, Georgetown 1At Georgetown, the Pioneers, 7-2-5, qualified for the state tournament after having won only three games a year earlier. Nathan and Sam Huebschmann, both midfielders, played excellent games with Nathan setting up Sam for the first Lynnfield goal and Sam providing the assist on Kuba Jablonka?s game-winner.Georgetown?s goal, which tied the game at the time, came on a penalty kick.Nick Coluccio was in net for the win. Center defender Tom Kearney anchored the defense.GIRLS SOCCERPeabody 6, English 0At Manning Field, after a scoreless first 25 minutes the Tanners erupted to take a 4-0 halftime lead.Junior Amanda Bradley had two goals, sophomores Alyssa Shashaty, Molly Tansey and Bryanna Gaynor, as well as freshman Emily Nelson, had a goal apiece.In addition, Adrianna Raneri had two assists, and Sydney Cooke and Caroline Colbert one each.Sophomore Rebecca Sabino and freshman Jordan Muse split time in the nets for Peabody (13-1-1 overall; 13-0-0 in the Northeastern Conference).For English, Caitlin Geaney played well on defense and both Kaitlyn Nadeau and Tommi Hill played in net.
