It may have been raining across the North Shore this past weekend, but inside, it was raining goals for both St. Mary’s hockey teams.
After a midseason bump, the boys team hit the road to Bishop Feehan and returned with a 3-0 victory on Saturday.
Joey Calder, Evan Toto, and Cam McGonagle entered the goal-scoring column, while Matt Smith Jr. snagged another shutout with 21 saves.
The Lady Spartans took on Arlington Catholic in a Saturday matinee, and three periods later, remained undefeated at 6-0-1.
In the 5-0 shutout, Bella Freitas scored a pair of goals, Audrey Zinck tucked the first of her career, and Gianna Tringale (10 saves) ruled between the pipes.
