'I knew that third goal was probably going to be my last goal ever at Hingham,' said Doherty, who plans to play Division 1 hockey at Holy Cross. 'So I had to rep the Hingham jersey, because it's so special.'

The only player to score more in a title game was former Hingham star Chrissie Bowler (2008 vs. Milton), who held the program points record until Doherty passed it this season. Doherty has 234 career points.

'She just fulfilled her legacy here and really cemented it in the record books,' third-year coach Courtney Turner said. 'She's the finisher, but it's a full team effort that wins the game.'
After Bishop Stang (18-6-1) took an early lead through Isa Rioux, Hingham (24-1-1) scored the next five goals. Hannah Lasch evened the score two minutes later, then Doherty took over.

She broke in on a rush from her own end in the opening minute of the second, deking past Stang goalie Vivienne Melo and sliding in a backhand to put the Harborwomen on top. A minute and 51 seconds later, she ripped in a point shot on the power play to double the lead.

Classmate Addy Garrity, who added the Harborwomen's fifth in the game's final minute, assisted Doherty's second – a fitting connection for a duo that has combined for 347 career points in their four years together.
Addy Garrity makes it 5-1 Hingham!
A deserved goal at the Garden for the senior, who has had another great game today and nets one in the final minute.
— Mike Puzzanghera (@mpuzzanghera)
'We're pushing each other to get to where we want to be, and pushing each other to work harder.' Garrity said. 'I'm not playing hockey in college, but I'm so excited to watch Caroline, because all of the work has just paid off.'

Izzi Puleo stopped 16 of 17 shots she faced in goal for Hingham before a late goalie change. After 14 years away, Hingham returned to the top of Division 1.
'Being able to end it with Addy, on the ice together, as seniors graduating, it's so special to look up at the crowd knowing they've been with us for four years,' Doherty said. 'It's amazing, especially doing it with Addy by my side.'

North Irvine prevents Newport Beach 18U ‘three-peat' at USA Water Polo Junior Olympics

IRVINE — Luke Harris called it a really hard decision to leave his brothers on the Newport Harbor High boys' water polo team, competing for a different club team before heading off to college. What made the decision a bit easier was knowing that his good friend and fellow goalkeeper, incoming senior Connor Clougherty, was more than capable of taking the reins in the cage. 'That's my true team, my alma mater,' said Harris, who helped the Sailors claim the CIF Southern Section Open Division title last fall. 'I will always love them to death and be supportive of them. All I want for them is for them to get better and succeed.' Harris left to play with a 'super team,' North Irvine Beast Boys, made up of players from different high schools, this summer. On Tuesday afternoon, he faced many of his Sailors teammates in the boys' 18-and-under gold medal match of the USA Water Polo Junior Olympics. Harris prevented Newport Beach Water Polo Club from winning the division three years in a row, though his own personal streak is intact. The USC-bound goalie made 12 saves as the Beast Boys beat Newport Beach 9-5 for the title at Woollett Aquatics Center. It's the third straight Junior Olympics title for Harris, who helped the Newport Beach 18s win it in 2023 and again last year. 'It felt like it was all or nothing,' Harris said. 'If we didn't win, we were going to feel like a bunch of dogs, honestly. Our whole persona was big, almost a little cocky, everyone kind of hated us. If we didn't win this, it was all for nothing. That was our mindset the whole time.' JSerra graduate Gavin Conant, who, like Harris, will be a Trojan next year, scored a match-high four goals and earned MVP honors. North Irvine, which avenged a loss to Newport Beach in the Junior Olympics quarterfinals on Monday, also featured Corona del Mar graduate Jackson Harlan and Newport Harbor graduate Santino Rossi. Harlan, the 2024-25 Daily Pilot Dream Team Player of the Year, had a field block and a drawn exclusion in the win. 'Coming together and training for three months, going out and getting the job done, there's no better feeling,' Harlan said. 'A surreal feeling.' Sean Anderson, an incoming sophomore transfer from JSerra, had two goals for team-high honors for Newport Beach. Coach Ross Sinclair said that Anderson and his older brother, Tyler, an incoming senior center who starred for the Lions last season, are now both officially enrolled at Newport Harbor. Kai Kaneko, Declan Bartlett and Fletcher Appeldorn added goals for Newport Beach. Clougherty made four saves. Harris said that North Irvine, which led 6-2 at halftime, effectively utilized an 'M-drop' zone defense. 'They just played a little faster, a little more intense, and they had some big moments from big-time players,' Sinclair said. 'I love Luke; I thought he was great. I've seen that before. I'm bummed that we lost, but I'm happy for the way that he goes out his last year. He was fantastic.' Newport Beach missed incoming senior standout Connor Ohl, who has been playing with the U.S. men's senior national team at the World Aquatics World Championships in Singapore. Team USA plays Italy in the seventh-place match on Thursday morning. The Sailors, who Sinclair has guided to the CIF finals in the top division for six straight years, will get back to high school water polo soon enough this fall. 'We have a good group, it's going to be fun,' Sinclair said. 'It's more, 'how do we stay focused, stay hungry and use experiences like this to get better?' It's going to be a fun high school season. There's a lot of good teams out there. We'll enjoy a little break, come back and chip away.' Session Two of the USA Water Polo Junior Olympics, featuring girls' and co-ed divisions, runs Thursday through Sunday in Orange County.

In a spirited 117-109 victory over the All-Star players on the U.S. women's national team in 2024, Reese recorded 12 points and 11 rebounds along with a steal and a block in just 18 minutes of action. She became the first rookie ever to record a double-double in WNBA All-Star Game history.

"Mebounds, she-bounds, two-time All-Star-bound, two wins, two dubs, back-to-back — and we out," Reese said, via the Sky's website. "[It was] so much fun. I want to do it again — same team, same girls, again next year."
