330fieldhockeyGeorge Mason High School’s Mustang varsity field hockey team lost a heart-breaker in overtime to the Warriors of Wakefield High School at home Monday night. The Warriors scored first at the 14-minute mark of the first half, but Mason held off the Warriors’ attack and the score stood at 1-0 at the half. The Mustangs played strong defense the second half, but it looked like the game would end with the Mustangs unable to even the score.

The Warriors came on strong early during the seven-on-seven overtime, scoring the game-winner to beat the Mustangs 2-1. Earlier, the Mustangs’ JV team beat Wakefield 2-1, with Lydia Gorman scoring both goals for Mason.
