Hockey season winds down

Scarborough’s girls’ hockey hoped to repeat as state champions this winter, but the Red Storm lost, 4-2, to Falmouth in the West Region Final last Wednesday. Scarborough got two goals from standout Sami Shoebottom, but it wasn’t enough as it finished the year 14-5-1. The boys’ hockey regular season was wrapping up at press time. Scarborough looks like it will finish second to two-time defending state champion Falmouth in Western A. The Red Storm improved to 10-4-3 after home wins last week over Falmouth (2-1) and Thornton Academy (3-1). Cam Nigro and Matt Caron scored against the Yachtsmen. Nigro, Jack Callahan and Colin Hayward had the goals versus the Golden Trojans. Scarborough closed the regular season at Cheverus Thursday. South Portland was sixth at 10-7 after an 8-4 home win over Marshwood/Traip, a 5-0 loss at Windham and a 3-1 home win over Windham. Andrew Whipple had six goals against Marshwood/Traip and added a pair in the win over the Eagles. The Red Riots hosted Noble/Wells in the regular season finale Thursday. In Western B, Cape Elizabeth was fourth at 8-8-1 after a 5-1 home loss to York Saturday. The Capers were hoping to lock up a home quarterfinal when they closed at Leavitt Wednesday. The playoffs begin with the quarterfinals next week.
