Eighth grader filling role in net for girls’ hockey co-op

January 28, 2022 By Thomas Joyce

A key player on the Whitman-Hanson/Silver Lake girls’ hockey team is also among the youngest.
The co-op only has one goalie on its roster this season, and she is in eighth grade: Sadie Watchorn. With an eighth grader in net, WHSL was 6-5-0 as of the start of this week.
Watchorn has helped keep the team competitive this season and had a number of strong performances. There have been two games this season where she only allowed one goal: a 4-1 win over Marshfield on January 5, and a 5-1 win over Norwell on January 17. She also picked up the win in what was a key Patriot League victory for WSHL last Saturday night. The team hosted the Hingham Harborwomen and beat them 5-4 in overtime.
In the win over Hingham, Shea Kelleher had the game-winning goal for WHSL. It was her second of two goals on the day. She also added two assists. Like Kelleher, Caitlin Dilley also had two goals in the win and two assists. Abbey Powers also netted a goal, and Brenna Hohmann added an assist. And Watchorn made a key save with 10 seconds left to send the game into overtime. Hingham was 6-4-0 going into the game and beat WHSL earlier in the season: 4-1 on December 22 at Pilgrim Arena in Hingham.
With a winning record as of the start of this week, WHSL continues to fight for a playoff spot. If they make it to the playoffs, they may have the youngest starting goaltender of any team in the tournament.
The next game for WSHL will take place this Saturday, January 29 at Hobomock Ice Arena against the Marshfield Rams (8:45 p.m. start time).
